“It's important to teach students about the reality of the system, that it is in fact the case that they are being targeted unfairly, that the rules have been set up in a way that authorize unfair treatment of them, and how difficult it is to challenge these laws in the courts.

But we need to couple that information with stories of how people in the past have challenged these kinds of injustices, and the role that youth have played historically in those struggles.” PeopleWayNeedsYearsKindHas BeensImportantFactsStoriesRealityPastLawDifficultChallengesRolesTeachCasesStruggleInformationChangedYouthStudentsCoupleCourtInjusticeTreatmentUnfairBacklashPeople From The PastUnfair Treatment Author:Michelle Alexander

“In these last few days, we were close because we were both mortal men. We saw the same sun and the same twilight, we felt the same pull of the earth beneath our feet. We drank together and broke bread together. We might have made love together, if you had only allowed such a thing. But that’s all changed.
