But it is up to us to prepare our children for what they have to meet, and, hopefully, we shall overcome.
-Rosa Parks


I choice this quote because one of the main themes in the book is about how Starr goes to a mostly white school and then goes home to the "ghetto".]]> 2018-08-24 18:56:59 UTC https://padlet.com/meghan_mchenry91/1mq5wb87l7rj/wish/275243752 meghan_mchenry91 https://padlet.com/meghan_mchenry91/1mq5wb87l7rj/wish/275955924 “I can't change where I come from or what I've been through, so why should I be ashamed of what makes me, me?”- The hate u give

“It's dope to be black until it's hard to be black.” - The hate u give

“People like us in situations like this become hashtags, but they rarely get justice. I think we all wait for that one time though, that one time when it ends right.” - The hate u give

The theme for the book The hate u give is racism. The main plot is about Khalil, Starr's friend getting shot, who was an unarmed black man. The person who shot Khalil was a white police officer, which relates back to police brutality along with racism. The book evolves around Starr and how she is dealing with witnessing first hand her friend getting shot.]]> 2018-08-28 16:49:03 UTC https://padlet.com/meghan_mchenry91/1mq5wb87l7rj/wish/275955924 meghan_mchenry91 https://padlet.com/meghan_mchenry91/1mq5wb87l7rj/wish/275964095 In the help they have slaves, which is a sign of racism. In the book, racism is shown through the parents having to give their black children the talk about how to act around police officers. ]]> 2018-08-28 17:08:03 UTC https://padlet.com/meghan_mchenry91/1mq5wb87l7rj/wish/275964095 meghan_mchenry91 https://padlet.com/meghan_mchenry91/1mq5wb87l7rj/wish/276088446 In a way this picture relates to The hate u give by how Starr was the only black person at her school other than her two other siblings. ]]> 2018-08-29 01:30:09 UTC https://padlet.com/meghan_mchenry91/1mq5wb87l7rj/wish/276088446 meghan_mchenry91 https://padlet.com/meghan_mchenry91/1mq5wb87l7rj/wish/276091936 A movie that reminds me of Chris and Starr is The boy in the Striped Pajamas.

This book takes place in the 21th century. Slavery was not occurring at the time, but racism was. It was shown through a white police officer shooting an unarmed black man and word going around that he was a gangster, or drug dealer. ]]> 2018-08-29 01:58:36 UTC https://padlet.com/meghan_mchenry91/1mq5wb87l7rj/wish/276093738 meghan_mchenry91 https://padlet.com/meghan_mchenry91/1mq5wb87l7rj/wish/276095427 Racism is beyond common sense and has no place in our society.- Morrissey

The stereotype growing up was that Black people were always in the wrong doing. One white cop killed an innocent man turned everyday into a war. ]]> 2018-08-29 02:07:29 UTC https://padlet.com/meghan_mchenry91/1mq5wb87l7rj/wish/276095427 meghan_mchenry91 https://padlet.com/meghan_mchenry91/1mq5wb87l7rj/wish/276096976 In this picture a riot broke out about shootings that happened to innocent black people.
