    Stories like this get me every time. Almost ready to start tagging them with but that may be corny? Haha. Forget it, I'm using it. Thank you for sharing it with me!

    A student who is reading “The Hate U Give” got to the part where the title is explained. He asked what it meant and completely understood how it’s displayed in society!

    I'm so bummed that you're getting these types of reactions, though tbh I sort of expected it. It'll probably get much worse when the movie comes out, but I'll always be on your side! ❤️

    Some of you will only accept black and brown kids when they are presented in ways that make YOU comfortable. They're always too much "this" and not enough "that." Stop focusing on what you consider damaged petals and for once be in awe that roses are growing in concrete.

    "You wouldn't ask why the rose that grew from the concrete had damaged petals. On the contrary, we would all celebrate its tenacity. We would all love its will to reach the sun. Well, we are the roses, this is the concrete, and these are my damaged petals." - Tupac Shakur

    This is like me saying, "Hey! This building is on fire!" and instead some people are more concerned because the windows in the building are broken. I will NEVER have the privilege of being able to look away from the fire. Yeah, it's a privilege.

    I hope people had more concern regarding the death of Tamir Rice than all of the concern they seem to have regarding the language in my book. Spoiler alert: it's NEVER the language. That's a cop out.

    I've had several journalists reach out to me regarding being banned. As of now, I have no further comment on the situation beyond this Tweet. But thank you for reaching out to me.

    I'm saddened to hear that a school district in Texas banned , but I'm also empowered - you're basically telling the kids of the Garden Heights of the world that their stories shouldn't be told. Well, I'm going to tell them even louder. Thanks for igniting the fire.
