i believe the school to prison pipeline is very prominent in this neighborhood, due to the way that the boys are expected to know the system without it ever being taught to them #so345
@busocstudentcb I found this really upsetting because it discourages the kids to actually make these positive changes, because the reactions make it seem like them don’t deserve it. #so345
@User1269884151 I agree, and it is truly upsetting. I used to lean on my teachers for advice while in high school, and I believe these kids not being able to has a major affect on them #so345
@c_m3002 I agree, it is really upsetting that kids have to rely on becoming part of a gang for protection instead of having law enforcement do their job to protect them. #so345
@so400276676 I feel that one way we can break the cycle is through mentorship programs with college students, which I know has become more popular #so345
