Shatter

Shatter is a story of being Black in America; a family drama, a Bildungsroman, and ultimately a story of hope and reclamation – where one woman pursues the chance to reassemble her life in a meaningful way.  While based in Cincinnati, this story would hold true in many American metropolitan cities of the 1950s and 1960s, where the intentional erosion of Black infrastructure and the expulsion of Black families was on the menu.
