Description

In the wake of the Uvalde school shooting, communities around the country are rushing to “harden” schools with increased police presence. But will these efforts really make school safe for students of color who are already over-policed, or will it strengthen the school-to-prison pipeline?

Guests:
Sheri Brady, Vice President of Strategy and Program for the Children’s Defense Fund, a nonprofit national organization fighting for children, families, and communities for more than 40 years.

Emily Jones, United Women in Faith Executive for Racial Justice and Interrupting the School-to-Prison Pipeline Campaign lead.
