The movie version of Angie Thomas best-selling young adult book, The Hate U Give manages to be a tribute to Tupac (who is referenced in the book and movie title) a homage to Black love, an indictment of gun violence, a nuanced perspective on police shootings of Black men, a primer for white allyship and a coming of age story all at the same time. Despite all that’s packed into it, somehow, it works.
