ReportSynopsis
Four black women, all of whom have suffered for lack of money and at the hands of the majority, undertake to rob banks. While initially successful, a policeman who was involved in shooting one of the women's brothers is on their trail. As the women add to the loot, their tastes and interests begin to change and their suspicions of each other increase on the way to a climactic robbery.

dubious and unenthusiastic consent--a woman agrees to sleep with a man she's uncomfortable around because she needs money. she cries and washes herself off afterward.

no, but toward the beginning of the film there's a mention. Stony is grieving and someone says she's been "throwing up for two days", Stony appears a moment later and looks rough but not sick, and nothing is ever seen or heard.

not actively, but a couple of characters, when trapped, do things that they know will very likely get them killed--going out on their own terms, so to speak.
