We let people say stuff, and they say it so much that it becomes okay to them and normal for us. What's the point of having a voice if you're gonna be silent in those moments you shouldn't be?”

I called him Khalil. The world called him a thug.
He lived, but not nearly long enough, and for the rest of my life I'll remember how he died.
Fairy tale? No. But I'm not giving up on a better ending.”
― Angie Thomas, The Hate U Give
“I wanted him to know that I saw him, a guy who, even with a tear-streaked face, seemed to have two tiny smiles framing his eyes like parentheses, a guy on the ground pantomiming his death to remind the world he was alive.”

So one night she decides to attend a party with her friend Kenya hosted by Big Mac. Suddenly gun shots are heard so Starr was evacuated from the scene because her old time friend Khalil decided it was unsafe. Starr and Khalil were pulled over after a police officer noticed a broken taillight. The police officer was quick to assume that Khalil had a gun so Khalil was shot to death. ]]> 2018-08-29 14:43:35 UTC https://padlet.com/kiyora_kanai60/hu52lj6kosom/wish/276246600 kiyora_kanai60 https://padlet.com/kiyora_kanai60/hu52lj6kosom/wish/276279895 activism- the policy or action of using vigorous campaigning to bring about political or social change.
