These Stories will Make you Laugh, Cry, 

and Want to Change the World

Stories from the Stoop features seven unforgettable true-life adventures; stories told with humor, grit, and candor that will fill you with hope and remind us that we are all in this together.

Within these pages, you’ll see life from a new perspective—through the eyes of a young boy— straight from his Bronx stoop. This small piece of real estate made of granite, memories and dreams, is his window to the world.

Steve asks himself:

How can I overcome the violence on the streets?

Will I ever break the chains of being born into my cursed and chaotic family?

Am I always going to be an outsider?

It was Steve Bernstein's fortuitous and profound friendships—many of which crossed boundaries of race, gender, and religion—that enabled him to navigate these tumultuous questions and develop a hopeful perspective on life.

Without his dog, Wolf, Steve would not have survived the wrath of a street gang. On the day Martin Luther King, Jr. was killed, it was Anthony who recognized how dangerous it was for Steve (the only white kid on the basketball court that April evening) to be out shooting hoops. An epic bike trip with Joe breathed life into Steve's dream to be free, a lifelong friendship that only 9/11 could extinguish.

Stories from the Stoop is a triumphant and tender coming of age journey that will capture your heart and feed your soul. Steve's voice, spare and street smart, resonates across age and ethnicity, to offer the possibility that life circumstances need not predict destiny. All you have to do is find enough courage, compassion and chutzpah to win out.

Come, join Steve on the stoop and find out what it means to truly be free.
