The story
In 1984, 10-year-old Jason "Tre" Styles III lives with his single mother, Reva Devereaux, in South Central Los Angeles.
An hour later, two police officers arrive: Graham, the white officer, is civil and professional, while Coffey, the black officer, is hostile and demonstrates self-hatred.
Ricky, now a star running back at Crenshaw High School, lives with his mother Brenda, his girlfriend Shanice, and their toddler son.
