To all my black followers and friends, stay safe.
Also, I would like to add that black lives have always mattered, will always matter.
It’s awful that we even have to say that because it should be a given. However, we need to say it loud and clear for the racists.
We cannot be silent.

Feel your feelings. Don’t try to shut them away. It’s okay to cry, and yell and feel every bit of sadness or anger you have. You don’t have to pretend you’re okay.

You are not “overreacting” or “too sensitive”. If it hurts you, then it hurts you. Whatever you are feeling is valid. Pain is pain.

I’ve found that luck is quite predictable. If you want more luck, take more chances, be more active, show up more often.

The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas: ★★★★★/★★★★★
Awards: Coretta Scott King Honor, Michael L. Printz Honor, William C. Morris Award, Odyssey Award, Boston Globe-Horn Book Award for Fiction
Review: 16-year-old Starr Carter spends her days trying not to appear “ghetto” at her elite high school. She avoids slang, keeps her opinions to herself, and does her best to fit in with the rich kids. At her home neighborhood of Garden Heights, she works at her father’s grocery store and carefully navigates a world full of gang rivalries, drugs, and teen pregnancies. Her worlds remain carefully separated… until her childhood best friend is shot by a white police officer during a traffic stop. Over the course of the book, Starr learns about how to speak up for those at the bottom, to stick up for herself, and how The Hate U Give can bring real change to the world.
This is possibly the most important book I have read over the last year. The Hate U Give provides moving insight to the police brutality issue in America, as well as the Black Lives Matter movement. The book takes a careful look at what the face of justice might look like in a world full of injustice. It provides a destigmatizing look into impoverished neighborhoods, and the possible motives of drug dealers. I found myself rooting for justice for justice for Khalil throughout the book and cheering for Starr as she learned to stick up for herself and let go of toxic mentalities and relationships in her life. I cannot recommend this book enough, everyone should be reading it, especially white people. This title does deal with mature themes (drug use, sexual themes, language, murder, police brutality, gang violence, etc.), however I still recommend it for all teens and adults.
