Early on in the novel, Starr mentions the talk her parents had with her about what to do if approached by a police officer. She was only 12 years old, but because of her skin color, her parents found it necessary.
“When I was twelve, my parents had two talks with me. One was the usual birds and bees...The other talk was about what to do if a cop stopped me.”
