How does the novel fit into the context of the Black Lives Matter movement?
Compare and contrast Sarah’s life as a White child and Jerome’s life as a Black child. What impacts do class, race, and neighborhood have on the reality of their daily lives?
Jerome comes to a better understanding of why he haunts people connected to him as a result of his death. What tasks must he complete before moving on, and what do these tasks tell us about what Americans must do to come to terms with the killing of Black children?
