Twenty-one-year-old Reed is fed up. Angry about the killing of a Black man by an Asian American NYPD officer, he wants to drop out of college and devote himself to the Black Lives Matter movement. But would that truly bring him closer to the moral life he seeks?
In a series of intimate, charged conversations, his motheronce the leader of a Korean-Black coalitiondemands that he rethink his outrage, and along with it, what it means to be an organizer, a student, an ally, an American, and a son.
