Los Angeles schools decriminalize discipline | Black Politics on the Web
Punishment is not going away....just a more human and reasonable approach to how to handle discipline in our school sis coming back in to fashion. And, it should help reduce the number of Black youth who stop out of education de to brushes with the criminal justice system over what some call minor instances and occurrences.
Restorative justice programs and processes will hopefully assist young Black adults in atoning for their actions as well as give them a greater sense that fairness is a reality for them as well as their classmates.
Let's all pray this approach can pay off big time for our Black youth.
