Harvest of hatred

Sixteen-year-old Starr Carter navigates between two contrasting worlds: the poor Black neighborhood she lives in, plagued by gangs, drug dealing, and poverty, and the luxurious high school she attends in the white suburbs. The unstable balance between these two worlds shatters when she witnesses the murder of her childhood friend by a white police officer. Events escalate, and the news makes headlines and broadcasts. Some describe him as a criminal, while protesters emerge demanding justice for him and hundreds of oppressed people worldwide who suffer under the injustice and arbitrariness of racism and class discrimination. A story that addresses racism, police brutality, double standards, the distortion of facts, and other important topics.
