A monologue from Crawl<\/i> by Crystal Skillman<\/h4>\n
\"\"<\/span><\/div>

(Male, Serio-Comic, College – 20s)
\n<\/b>Alex, a black man, talks to his brother, Ty, on the stoop of their modest but well-kept house on Franklin Ave in Brooklyn, NY. It is cold, January or February, and there is ice on the ground. Their parents, who are now dead, left the house to them, and they are selling it. Alex has come all the way from Long Beach to help Ty sell the place, but they argue about their family\u2019s history. The men have been waiting outside for a while for the buyer. Alex accuses Ty of getting sentimental about the house, which segues into why Alex doesn\u2019t get emotional about movies, namely Avatar. Rather than being a monologue strictly about Avatar, Alex\u2019s views on the film represent his perspective on how \u201cperfect culture\u201d is represented as truth when so much of the world, especially the world around him, is falling to pieces.<\/span><\/p>\n
