Please help us spread awareness to this ongoing injustice that has forced students across the nation to endure brutal law enforcement action against them.
Why is this important?
The School-to-Prison-Pipeline is a phenomena that has occurred in a span of over 30 in the United States education system. In part brought upon by the "zero-tolerance" policy toward students that need help, and are instead handled by the justice system and its law enforcement. I think a lot of us have witnessed or been affected by how the education system handles disruptive students. Some are suspended, some sent to juvenile detention, and others are tried as adults. I've seen with my own eyes that most of the students that come back after being exiled from their education do not have a positive experience or outcome. We want real help for our friends and family, the people within this school system should no longer be cast aside.
