The racial discord through the early 20th Century came to a head by the 1960s. Much like the song, the story alternates between two men-one White, one Black-as they journey through one of the most fraught and disturbing periods of US history, one that remains largely unresolved even sixty years later.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \"drowned man\" a White man stripped of his place in the strictly segregated society struggles to navigate the surging currents and find a place for himself and his complicated family.
