The Criminalization of Black Girls in Schools
The book examines the educational and criminal justice systems' intersectional challenges faced by Black girls in the United States. It explores the ways in which these young women are often misunderstood, marginalized, and subjected to punitive policies that lead to negative outcomes, such as high suspension rates and involvement in the juvenile justice system. Through personal narratives, data analysis, and critiques of existing policies, the book highlights the need for more compassionate and effective approaches to support Black girls in their educational journeys and to dismantle the school-to-prison pipeline that disproportionately affects them.
