The Hate U Give

[chase_acow]

I loved it. I haven't gotten very far in the book, I decided not to take it on vacation with me. Those kids were really well done, writing and acting. I admit, I had no idea where the title came from, but once I found out -> awesome. That was a bad shoot. Period. The depressing thing is that I know some of the guys I work with would still get defensive and blame the kid for not following orders. I continue to wonder if I should get out while I still have that shred of ethics left. I cried then at the movie, and at the end. Starr is so good. When the dad was giving them "the talk" and it was so different than what pop culture would lead you to expect I felt so awful. I did look up the Black Panther's Ten Point Program, which I am in no way equipped to comment on, but seems totally reasonable given my extremely limited scope.

I love this movie.

Anthony Mackie as King was hot and scary and sad.
