T.H.U.G. Theme

A theme that could be potentially learn from The Hate You Give is to move cautiously and carefully around uneasy officers who seem to assume the worst about you. Kahlil, for example, the officer asked Kahlil to get out of the car because Kahlil was passing attitude and, more than likely, because he was of color. The officer assumed the worst about Kahlil and even though Kahlil moved to just check on Star and to grab a hairbrush, he moved when the officer told him not to and 115, the officer, could not see what was in his hands or what he could be planning to do.
