The Day Eazy-E Died

March 1995. As Raheim “Pooquie” Rivers juggles his increasingly hectic schedule as a supermodel, he is rocked by the news that one of his idols, NWA founder Eric “Eazy-E” Wright, has AIDS. His complacency shattered, Raheim gets tested for HIV but keeps it a secret from his boifriend, Mitchell “Little Bit” Crawford. Meanwhile, life goes on: his son struggles in a new school and his high school sweetheart falls in love with a new man, while Mitchell becomes concerned about his moodiness and withdrawal. As he has done so successfully with the other books in the B-Boy Blues series, Hardy draws his fascinating characters into the ferment of urgent societal issues. As the date of his test result draws near, Raheim’s fear and the ongoing stigma of AIDS push him toward conflicting emotions and decisions.
