Speaking with Paron (Pt. 2) On The School-to-Prison Pipeline Issue

It is beyond an honor to have Paron return to the podcast to help bring awareness to another critical issue overlooked in our communities. The  “school-to-prison pipeline” is a disturbing national trend wherein youth are funneled out of public schools and into the juvenile and criminal legal systems. Many of these youth are Black or Brown, have disabilities or histories of poverty, abuse, or neglect, and would benefit from additional support and resources. Instead, they are isolated, punished, and pushed out. As you listen to the episode, I encourage you to think from your perspective as a parent, guardian, relative, student, teacher, or friend. Everyone will have their own opinion, which is ok; just because it is different doesn’t always mean it's wrong. So please consider this as you go forward with this episode.
