Thank you for mentioning "115" (I think his name started with a d?), it struck me as super odd that Starr never starts referring to him by his name, especially when she reflects on how Kahlil is unfairly dehumanized by being referred to as just a drug dealer. Furthermore, after the shooting, 115 hardly appears in the book at all, making it difficult to justify Starr et all's assessments of his character. It should be such an easy loophole for Thomas to button up, but she leaves herself wide open, frustratingly weakening the moral case of her novel.
