The second part of the novel starts with being asked to take on a new case known as Operation Black Biscuit. The idea of this case was to make an attempt at successfully infiltrating the Hells Angels. Jay meets his new team, a long time friend, William “Timmy” Long, an ex-biker now informant, “Pops”, and a confidential informant named Rudy Kramer. When Jay takes on this new case, he becomes even more separated from his family. This makes me feel disgust because Jay’s family had given so much to him for him to give very minimal in return. Not being able to spend time with family is one of the worst things in the world and Jay becomes so set on becoming a Hells Angel and living the life of Jay “Bird” Davis, that he forgets that outside of work he is still Jay Dobyns.

Since the first Africans arrived in what is now present day America in the 1500s, there has been reaffirming data supporting the importance of community to people of African descent. Despite large efforts to destroy this aspect of the African experience, many African Americans have maintained their kinships especially when the foundation is birthed from ethnic parallels. As a result of this affirmation, Dr. Mary Pattillo’s assertion on the present day black middle class and their commitment to restoring their community of North Kenwood- Oakland in her book, Black on the Block is no surprise. However, what is shocking is that the same declaration cannot be said for the African American middle class during what Dr. Pattillo deemed the ‘Black
Richard Wright’s “Big Boy Leaves Home” confronts a young black person’s forced maturation at the hands of unsympathetic whites.

Singled out for being larger than his friends, he is the last to stand, withstanding bouts with white men, a snake, and a dog, as we are forced to confront the different levels of nature and its inherent violence.

The fourth chapter she decides how the state cruelly uses social control to force racial minorities into this new Jim Crow caste systems. The fifth chapter is the parallels she found between Jim Crow and today mass incarceration in the age of color blindness.

These sections are tainted with death and with the issu...
