Doing Time in Education

This compelling work is a powerful exploration of the American criminal justice system, focusing on the school-to-prison pipeline and its impact on marginalized communities. Through a series of monologues based on real-life interviews, it brings to life the voices of students, teachers, parents, and administrators, offering a raw and unfiltered look at the systemic issues that perpetuate inequality and injustice. The narrative challenges audiences to confront uncomfortable truths and inspires a call to action for reform and empathy.
