Captivating; a Must-Listen
The Alley is everything a good story should be—suspenseful, well-written, and richly populated with memorable and flawed characters. Not since The Wire (on HBO) and When They See Us (on Netflix) have I been drawn into an urban landscape that resonates with such authenticity and nuance. There must be 10,000 stories out there like this; stories that show how many in our nation still buy into the stereotypes and easy answers provided by believing one race is inferior to another. The Alley showcases how this belief undercuts justice and perpetuates division, poverty, and police violence. I hope this series is a catalyst to bring justice to all the innocents locked up because police detectives wanted to wrap up a case rather than solve a crime.
