Welcome to the If You Are My Brothers Documentary & Community Engagement Project
"If 'You Are My Brothers" is a documentary and outreach project that follows the journeys of two African-American men dealing with prostate issues. Ralph Franklin, a real estate lawyer with a PSA level of 100 and a terminal prognosis, meets a physician who helps him prepare to live rather than succumb to the disease. Reggie Hicks, the documentary's producer, is diagnosed with the same illness while chronicling Ralph's story. This single narrative develops into two distinct yet deeply connected stories — two men facing their own challenges, united by a shared bond of brotherhood and hope.
