About this movie

Based on the best-selling novel, The Hate U Give tells the story of Starr Carter, who lives in two worlds: the poor, black neighborhood where she resides and the mostly white prep school she attends. This uneasy balance is shattered when she witnesses the fatal shooting of her childhood friend by a policeman. Facing pressures from all sides, Starr must find her voice and stand up for what’s right.

All the people who said we're pulling a "race card" can S.A.D because if you're complaining about this then that means one you don't wanna offer the truth of this world to your child and two because you can't accept the fact that multiple black people have to fight because we can't even drive without the cops trying to start stuff. We don't make this up, this is what our life is like and if you can't understand that then stay tf out the way of people who actually care. Especially Ms. Molly over here. Go look up Philando castille and the list that follows after that. God...this is why I don't read reviews y'all😂 I'm only 15. I'm scared to get pregnant and then be slammed on the ground by a cop like what happened to this one lady. Omg. Imma keep going if I stay, so you guys have a goodnight.

white people i said white people because white aint no race it the "color" of your skin. the racist white people out there need help because they are the problem in the world today. if you have black family you are worried if they will be next. its hard being white waking up every day with a black brother being worried if he is next. IM WHITE and understood every thing going on in this movie and for the white people out there if you did not understand this YOU NEED HELP YOUR THE PROBLEM. im 11 and if i can understand this all the ignorant adults can to because you were taught racism not born like that and for the people out there sayin this is a movie to bring down white people NO ITS NOT and WILL NEVER BE. this is a movie everybody NEEDS to see so they can understand it. I ME was balling my eyes out this whole movie because this could happen to my family any day know but it hasnt and im grateful it hasnt.

Notice a lot of white people watch it & still don't get it. Haha. That's crazy they just want to pretend or really believe the movie isn't based on facts-when they say yea there is racism, but I'm tired of the race card being used. Lol. They think it's just a movie-but its basically daily life for black people everywhere some places worse...but ugh, white people maybe to understand they need to literally go under cover as a black person- paint their skin to look black & then go out into the wrld
