Another title I can't remember. Help, please.

This movie I'm thinking of was on TCM during Black History Month. It was black and white and seemed to focus on a black man struggling o make it by in a run down neighborhood. He's got a kid, a son, I think it belongs to him, who at one point, runs around with a monster mask on. At another point, the main character, the man, is cleaning an engine block in his kitchen, I think. He gets into an argument with his wife/girlfriend because one of the Man's friends wants him to participate in something bad or questionable.

During another part there's a group of kids throwing rocks in the middle of these left over ruins from a factory.

I found a list of played on TCM during Black History Month, but I've got no idea which one it is and have read all the titles and descriptions.

Here's the list:

Maybe it wasn't even on TCM.

It had an "indie" feel and felt like the actors were a whole lot more realistic than the majority of things coming out today.

Your thoughts.

It most certainly is! Thank you.

For anyone that hasn't seen it, I recommend it.

Yes, I am recommending a movie I barely remember seeing that I didn't even finish. It was beyond my control.
