The year is 1968. Eugene (Tree) Hairston, an eighteen year old from the ghetto in Portsmouth VA, joins the service to get away from his abusive family. Serving in Vietnam, Hairston runs headlong into blatant racial discrimination and angers his superiors by reporting it. A sergeant, who loses a promotion because of the report, has Hairston bound and beaten, takes him up in a helicopter, and shoves him out into Viet Cong territory, to his probable death. Miraculously, Hairston is rescued three days later is given the option to leave the service.

At home, his untreated Post Traumatic Stress Disorder completely overtakes his life; the only way he is able to cope is by using drugs and alcohol. Unable to support his family or his habit, he turns to criminal activity and eventually becomes a successful drug dealer. His many attempts to get clean and sober fail; eventually he serves three prison sentences: for burglary, armed robbery, and drug dealing.

In an effort to change his life, Hairston moves to Tampa, Florida, where he ends up living on the streets for eight long years. This book follows him through his desperate addiction to the moment his life changed.

Great sunscreen!
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 2), Style: SPF 50
We love this sunscreen as our compromise between conventional toxic sunscreen and pure zinc that proves challenging to work with! A few bottles lasted us an entire week of vacation!

Easy to Use, Great for Daily Outdoor Use
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 2), Style: SPF 50
This has become my go-to sunscreen for daily walks. The spray works at any angle, which makes application quick and easy — especially when you’re trying to get out the door. 🙌 The scent is light and summery, not overpowering, which I appreciate. It performs well for regular outdoor use, though like most sprays, it does leave a slightly sticky feel on the skin. For those who pay attention to ingredients, this has an EWG rating of 4 (with 10 being the worst), so while it’s not the cleanest option out there, there are definitely greener alternatives if that’s a priority for you. Overall, a convenient and reliable everyday sunscreen, especially for active outdoor routines.

Best for Construction Workers
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 2), Style: SPF 70
I work on hot rooftops with a white surface, surrounded by metal duct work that reflects the sun all day long. It could be 70° at ground level but 100° on the roof. This is the best unscented, sweat proof sunscreen I have been able to find. I only need to reapply at around 1:00pm. I made it the entire summer without a sun burn. Pretty impressive.
