James Robert Kennedy is a black teenager with intellectual disabilities in Anderson, South Carolina. Kennedy often carried a radio with him, and people gave him the nickname "radio". Due to mental retardation, Kennedy was always teased and mocked. In the face of other people's sneers, Kennedy always responded with "I love you". The head coach of the Hannah High School football team, Harold Jones, one day announced Kennedy as an official member of the football team. This decision has since changed Kennedy's life. Harold has always encouraged, helped and cared about Kennedy, which made Kennedy increasingly cheerful. Kennedy also used his hard work and optimism to bring many victories to the team. The people in the town fell in love with this young black guy who brought them pride and honor, and the originally tense race relationship was relieved.
