"The Hate U Give" receives its title from the rapper Tupac Shakur, who created the "THUG LIFE" acronym, standing for 'the hate u give little infants f**ks everybody' and regarding the cycle of societal violence. This film, based on a best selling novel, revolves around a teen girl named Starr and opens with a particularly moving scene in which her father is giving "the talk." Most people assume this to be the talk that many adolescent teenagers receive from their parents about sex, but for Starr's family and many others, "the talk" is a declaration of racism in America.
