NEWS/ARTICLES On Shoulders Now

On Shoulders Now is a powerful holiday family story about one man’s memory of life and resilience from beyond the grave. Vernon is a homeless man from Kansas City who saw the good and bad in his community and still loved it even though community members never saw him as anything more than a homeless man without a job. After his recent passing, Vernon haunts the present unable to rest in peace until he shares his fondest reflection on a Christmas past that reveals the true meanings of the season: love, friendship and family. Flashing back to our undocumented, homeless and victims of the street in our community. Vernon asks how can Christmas be a season of caring, sharing and holiday cheer when some citizens remain as invisible as ghosts?
