Durham Community Groups to Host Town Hall on Dismantling the School-to-Prison Pipeline
Two Durham community groups will host a virtual town hall this week to discuss strategies to eliminate public school policies and practices that take Black and Brown students out of their classrooms and push them into jail cells.
The topic, âDismantling the School-to-Prison Pipeline,â will be the centerpiece of a discussion Wednesday moderated by members of the Youth Justice Project and the People's Alliance.
The town hall hosts define the school-to-prison pipeline as a âsystem of policies and practices that push students, especially students of color, out of school and into the juvenile and adult criminal systems.âÂ
