Enduring hardship was not new to him. The Marine Corps gave it purpose.From a childhood marked by violence and enforced silence to the drill field at Parris Island, The Street follows Sherman Gillums Jr. as he evolves into the role of senior drill instructor, forging young men into warriors in the uneasy calm before September 11th sent them into war.This is not a story about surviving hell. It is about learning who you become inside it.What happens when the system designed to break you down finds someone already fractured? When pain becomes education? Narrated with the cadence and candor of a man who lived it, Gillums pulls listeners inside the squad baythe noise, the ritual, the moral weight of shaping human beings under pressureand examines how cruelty and discipline can share a uniform, and how what saves us can become what we pass on.With forewords by David J. Shulkin, MD, 9th Secretary of Veterans Affairs, and Sergeant Major Eric J. Stockton, 26th Sergeant Major of Marine Barracks Washington, D.C.The Street challenges listeners to confront a harder question than whether they can endure. It asks what endurance will cost them.©2026 Sherman Gillums Jr. (P)2026 Sherman Gillums Jr. Military Psychology Psychology & Mental Health Social Sciences Violence in Society
