The Eye in Us

Om The Eye in Us

The Eye in US harkens back to the days before gentrification where the characteristics of the predominately Black population in Washington, DC, seasoned the flavor of the city. The Eye in US provides multifarious perspectives on life through the lives of the Blind family who are entangled by the culture, humanity, and misadventures of the nation's capital. Like in the tale of Buffus of the Blind family, a Washington, DC resident who back in 1952 took a notion to shine coins for the United States Treasury Department. There is the tale of Sendus, an ex-baseball player turned bus driver in our nation's capital. Now he's using his strength of will to be on the job every day, making a living despite his crushed dreams. Markus and Candus are working the streets of DC, keeping themselves fierce as they face the hustle and the story of Minus, a postal carrier walking the streets trying to stave off the hassles. The tales are tongue-in-cheek, irreverent, raw reality, which gives a glimpse of US. Cirrius, Primus, Uwinnus, and those others who take on their own lot in life and make due. The Eye in US will compel you to consider a reality where it is US against and in spite of them. Arlene Turner Crawford
