On this episode of the Reel World Theology Podcast:
We talk about one of the most affecting movies of the year, The Hate U Give. While it has not been blowing the doors off the box office, those who have watched this one have rarely walked away without having to really wrestle with a wide array of topics. Based on a wildly popular book, The Hate U Give offers honest and thoughtful conversation to some of the most challenging conflicts of our day in a way that is highly accessible to a wide range of ages. Point being, we have a lot of ground to cover.
