Morgan Boy

Noah Humphrey shares his years in South Central, Los Angeles, in this memoir. He writes about the racism and gentrification he encountered there, along with other social pressures that shaped daily life.

The manuscript weaves together his own thoughts with the shared experiences of a young boy searching for emotional recovery in a neighborhood where many people never manage to leave. Its focus stays on the struggle to heal from what surrounds him.

Beyond recounting these years, the book is also an effort to build a space where Noah can finally rest and continue his healing.
