You did very well writing this but I made quite a few edits so I'll just type my version for references.
Explanation:
Inequality, racism, and injustice are the main points shown in this film. The Hate You Give was published on February 17 of 2018, and was written by Angie Thomas. This film has won a total of 5 awards, a 4.5/5 by Goodreads, and a 5/5 on Common Sense Media. The book follows Starr Carter, a young African American woman whom is struggling with the very real situation of police brutality. People often sit idoly by in silence when things like in this story happen, but I can assure that from my own reading and viewing experiences that this will stick with you.
The story begins with Starr Carter attending the annual spring break party. Just as her and her friend Khalil are talking a shooting breaks out and Khalil flees with Starr. As they're driving away they get pulled over. An officer of the badge number 115 rips Khalil from the car. Starr then witnesses her friends murder as Khalil is shot multiple times in the back.
I personally believe that this movie should be watched by countless people no matter their race or background. It truly brings attention to the discrimination against people of color. Us as people choose our decisions, and with every decision comes and affect. It's up to your cause, your decision, whether or not that affect is positive or negative.
The Hate You Give is a totally worth it film. I believe it can and will change people's perspectives.
