Summary:

Anthony has lived a life of complete privilege growing up in an affluent family with mixed parents. Accustomed to having his Black roots overlooked, he's never given race much important thought until a girl he meets at his house party, Aaliyah Jackson, the only other student of color in his grade, is unjustly arrested by a white officer. In the aftermath of this brutalization, Anthony is faced with two choices. Be quiet and accept that things will always be this way or stand up and embrace who he is. What will he choose?
