David is torn between two worlds, black and white... good and evil. He struggles to affiliate with his culture and the real meaning of the words nigga and nigger.
After reaching national prominence, David Williams brings misconduct charges against the Prosecutor's Office. He finds himself defending his wife and himself against three street punks. By withholding evidence, the Prosecution determines that it was unjustifiable homicide and David goes to prison. In prison, he learns the history of the Black people. He is made aware of how much they contributed to the growth of the United States of America. There, he had challenges to overcome with other inmates. Two of the inmates, Stefon Anderson and Antonio Ballard formed a partnership vowing to extract revenge on David Williams. They had obtained long prison sentences while David served as their counsel. After two years, he is freed because proof had been obtained that he was set up and the jury was rigged. Getting out of prison should have been a going home for David, but he had turned a corner in his life that put him on a different path. He had become all he hated in his race. Because of the delay in being reinstated by the Bar Association, David engages in criminal activity to maintain his quality of life and his desire for material things in the world.
