From single motherhood to Uncle Jazz in drag, Tales from the Street focuses its readers on a unique viewpoint of urban family life. This series of short stories opens with six-year-olds engaging in social commentary concerning the adult world of sex, childbirth and motherhood proclaiming, "You always bragging about your daddy, but you don't have two mommies like I have ".
Varying themes, including brutality, infidelity and sexual experimentation, feature strong African-American women surviving, living and loving.
