ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

“All American Boys” by Jason Reynolds and Brendan Kiely explores the intertwined stories of two high school boys, Rashad Butler and Quinn Collins, who find their lives changed by a police brutality incident. Rashad, an African American student, is violently attacked by Officer Paul Galluzzo, a white police officer with a personal connection to Quinn. As the community reacts, both boys are forced to confront their beliefs, privileges, and roles in a racially divided society. The novel delves into themes of systemic racism, injustice, loyalty, and the power of protest, highlighting the importance of empathy and speaking out against oppression.
