WA:       For more than half his life, Dr. Harry Miles has been a black 
          man in a white world.  Holding firm to his identity, holding 
          firm to his deep personal pride, and savoring those moments 
          alone with his family.  Those moments behind the closed door of 
          his own home.  Tonight, Dr. Miles' home has been invaded.  
          Invaded by a subtle and complex and destructive force.  The 
          force of rumor.
