Starr attends Williamson, a prep school in a rich, mostly white area. While gang violence is prevalent, there are places like Maverick's grocery store and other shops that thrive. The Carters live in the mostly poor, predominantly black neighborhood of Garden Heights. Maverick was once part of the most violent gang in the neighborhood, the King Lords, but he has since left that life behind. Present Day in the early 2010s Starr (Amandla Stenberg) is Maverick's daughter who lives with him, her mother Lisa (Regina Hall), her older half-brother Seven (Lamar Johnson) and younger brother Sekani (TJ Wright). Maverick then hands them Black Panther ten step programs. Patriarch Maverick (Russell Hornsby) gives his three children instructions on what to do in the event that he or they are ever pulled over by police, but to also not be ashamed of their identities as black children.
