Rated Pushout: The Criminalization of Black Girls in Schools 10/10

Goodness, I can't say enough good things about the quality of this book's reporting. The statistics even dating back to earlier periods of education re: criminalization of black women was massively informative. Beyond that, it gives actionable and substantive ways that we can move forward based on her own work. Often books like this examine the problem and walk away without offering concrete solutions.<br><br>Ultimately, it covers ground that we knew in broader cases of the education of young black kids in this country and how our systems are not designed to benefit students - especially of color. But the specific focus on vulnerable young black girls is not an audience that gets focused on enough and for a light to be shined on that population is well-needed.
