Growing Up Kingsborough

Growing up Kingsborough (KB) is a non-fictional work that chronicles the lives of group of former residents who grew up in a Brooklyn, New York Public Housing Project - The Kingsborough Houses. Told from a first-person perspective of the author and friends, the work focuses on two decades - the mid-1960s and 1970s - and the impact the two decades had on our lives. Beginning with the 1965 first-grade picture, the project ties together our conversations, pictures, and reflections of our adolescent and teenage lives shared during four reunions that took place between 2016 through 2020. The ten book chapters unfold a lifetime of friendship, how we re-connected again, our KB and Bedford Stuyvesant community history, adolescence and young adulthood love, classic R&B music, visiting KB, how we socialized in a project community, and where we are now.
