Humans according to this theory are agents of purposeful actors who have reasons for their activities and are able to describe those reasons repeatedly.

The first is Prejudice. Prejudice is a prejudice or negative assessment of an object without knowing the truth first. Angie Thomas shows indirectly how prejudice occurs. Maverick's bad prejudice occurs because he is a black person. In America they have a bad reputation. The second is discrimination. Discrimination is an act that treats a person or group differently and unfairly on the basis of the characteristics of that person or group. Discrimination by police and paramedics against the main character is very, very detrimental and has a negative impact on the main character.
