All American Boys by Jason Reynolds and Brendon Kiely is a very good book about two teenage boys, one black and one white, who have to deal with the aftermath of an assault by a police officer. Rashad, the black teenager, is assaulted by a police officer who happens to be very close to Quinn, the white teenager,and Quinn witnesses the assault. Rashad must process the assault and how he wants to be involved with protests and the aftermath, all while recovering from his injuries. Quinn is extremely conflicted about what to do and where to stand, and he feels pulled to both sides by his loyalties on one side, and his beliefs on the other. When graffiti about Rashad sparks a protest, they both are forced to
choose how active they want to be. But none of it can happen without visuals, which, throughout the book, help make people think differently and express their feelings and thoughts
Throughout All American Boys, the expression of thoughts and feelings is greatly aided by Images that help people think differently From the image of the t-shirt that teaches Quinn about The roots of racist behavior all the way to the drawings that helped Rashad process the attack. to driven video
Quinn put Quinn into action, and in many other cases, the image has clearly changed the character's mindset and helped them express their emotions and thoughts. life in America is by creating the book to let the people know how bad and good society is for Americans.
