In a world that glorifies short cuts to riches and comfort, the movie brings out a theme of honesty and hard work in a system that’s oppresive to black women. Janiyah refuses a handout from her colleague. She refuses to steal the money from the store and the bank. She’s also human to a homeless man amidst her many challenges. Officer Raymond is human in discharging her duties. And the live video mobilizes support for Janiyah. It’s indeed possible for a day to be this tormenting. The death of Ariah, was truly a last straw. Her family is undeserving. An unexpected tormenting twist. It can be a cruel world to live in.
