This stays with you. With me. As a person of color, this story is ever relatable; need you and me to speak up; and bravery means we soldier on even when it's scary and frightening...we keep on. ...more

Thought provoking, emotionally deep, and walking through the deep, dark recesses of my mind. I'll be ruminating on the message for months. ...more

Hard to put down. Very difficult subject and disturbing scenes. The narrator for audio book added.

Being older middle aged middle class white female, I enjoyed the young adult and black urban culture and learned some new words and points of view.

Synopsis: teen girl from the “hood” who commutes to a privileged “white” school watches first hand as her friend is mistreated by a policeman. She is torn between watching out for herself and fighting injustice.
