Wilson's War Story is a two character, one-set drama detailing the collision between a retired U.S. Army General and the young black woman who recently sued her way into the General's alma mater, the Carolina Military Institute. Kendra Davidson has come to visit the ailing General Ryan Roosevelt Walker in his hospital room, ostensibly to interview him for the Carolina Military Institute's cadet newspaper, but it soon becomes clear that she is after much more than a simple interview, and she is going to have to fight to get it.
