Sexually explicit dialogue, and this was likely an NC-17 movie for that reason.
References to pregnancy, wearing condoms and giving birth.
The sex scenes occur off camera, but it is implied through dialogue that sex has taken place.

Shantel and a teacher argue about racism. While not violent, it's not a pretty sight. The teacher comes off as a "Friends"-watching "Seinfeld"-hating, The WB/CBS-loving Allied Nordicist/Yankee.
A girl is slapped by her father, she cries afterwards. A nasty argument is part of this.

The subject matter in this movie are intense. Racism, AIDS, and several things are shown. There is one very intense scene in which Shantel and her teacher argue, and it's violent.
