More about the book
The book challenges the mainstream narrative surrounding the school-to-prison pipeline, arguing that the presence of safety officers and security personnel in schools is often misrepresented. It explores how these measures, intended to create a safe learning environment, disproportionately affect young men of color, leading to records for disruptive behavior and subsequent incarceration. The author delves into the systemic issues within K-12 public schools that contribute to this troubling cycle, offering a critical perspective on the intersection of education and criminal justice.
