THE WORD ON THE STREET
While trying to keep her family together, a young Catholic widow must deal with prejudice as black families start moving into their all-white parish in 1950s West Philadelphia.
Tragedy strikes one day when Bill, a railroad conductor, is killed in a train accident, leaving Caitlin with the daunting task of raising her sons on a meager widows pension.
Meanwhile, St. Brendan's is facing the prospect of black families trying to move into the parish. In order to thwart their efforts, the pastor, Monsignor McGowan, with the approval of the parish council, decides to buy all houses for sale with parish funds.
But the plan backfires as too many houses go up for sale, thus using up all the parish's financial resources. In order to prevent panic selling, the Monsignor and the council then urge parishioners to sign a document promising not to sell their homes. Caitlin scoffs at the document when it is presented to her by her brother-in-law, Joe Gallagher, a member of the council, and her over-bearing sister, Maura.
Eventually, that plan fails, too, and black families begin moving into the neighborhood.By spring, nearly everyone is moving out of the neighborhood, including some of Brian's best friends. Even Maura and Joe decide to move, and now ironically urge Caitlin to do the same before property values plummet even further.
Then one fateful night, Caitlin learns that Sean has secretly married his girlfriend, Cindy. Caitlin throws them both out of the house just as Brian rushes in to tell his mother that St. Brendan's church is on fire.
As Caitlin and Brian leave on the city bus, Brian looks out the window at his neighborhood for the last time, passing the corner stores with their white and black shoppers, and finally passing St. Brendan's Church, which is a burnt-out derelict of a building.
