The Hate U Give stars Amandla Stenberg as Starr, a young high school age girl who spends her live code switching between her Black neighborhood and the predominately white school she attends. When her best friend is killed in front of her by police (wrongfully), she is forced to confront both worlds. Exploring the ideas of code switching, the Black Lives Matter movement, young activism, father and daughter dynamics inside the Black community, confront white friends, and much more, The Hate U Give provides a cathartic expression of Black activism in the modern age.
