Brutality, violence and activism are the themes that stood out to me the most. Though warfare, institutional corruption and racism were also noticeable.

Corruption was the one theme in the book according to me. Other themes that were covered include police brutality, violence, love, activism, and betrayal.

Betrayal, police brutality, death in the wars, and protests all stood out for me in this book. Not to mention love, discrimination and violence.

The book had a lot of emotions that could relate to the books overall message but the strongest theme was the most relatable police brutality and mass killing.

Though the traits of Steve were themes to be given attention like his loyalty, determination and hard-work the themes that govern the books plot are mass killings and police brutality.
