I Ain't Never Been Off This Street

By Vondolyn Wright

In the heart of a rundown apartment building near the intersection of 8TH Street and 31ST Avenue, Jake, a charming insurance salesman navigates the lives of the lower-income and working-class residents with Southern flair and a sharp wit. While his sales tactics raise eyebrows as much as the legitimacy of the insurance policies he sells, Jake's ability to peddle "Peace of Mind" is undisputed. However, when a chance encounter with two young teens extends Jake's visit to the apartment building and leads to unforeseen consequences, he is forced to confront the humanity behind the policies he sells. As he grapples with the harsh realities of his customer's lives, Jake must reckon with his privilege and the true value of the connections he forms. In this socially eye-opening tale, I Ain't Never Been Off This Street offers a brief, but raw and compelling exploration of identity, purpose, and the profound impact of empathy for the people he makes a living from.
