An important read about an ongoing subject. Plus the two narratives meld very well together.

Moderate: Cursing, Death of parent, and Toxic friendship
Minor: Vomit, Alcohol, Racial slurs, and Drug use
This will hit hard for anyone who has experienced the loss of a friend or childhood guardian due to bigoted values.amndaj's review against another edition

Fast but important read, reminiscent of The Hate You Give. Gives the reader a front row seat to some of the emotions and thoughts of a person subjected to racism and police violence as well as a person learning to see those problems.
