The Fog of Education

Book excerpt: Does the education of Black children matter? Not so much. The K-12 education system exists in a fog that serves the needs of the adults at the expense of the children who they are supposed to serve especially our children of color. Learn about the multiplicity of maladies and underlying racism that afflicts this corrupt system. Most of us know that the system is failed but we are unaware of the specifics of how the system engages in an actual war on youth. I will tell a personal and hard-hitting story that exposes this organized crime network. I will share my hope in the youth who I will challenge to take agency in addressing the system that is letting them down in such profound ways. Unfortunately, most educators will not want to read this book as it presents issues that they do not acknowledge let alone work to address. This is not your typical feel-good education book. It is meant to inspire the families and children to rise up to address the educational abomination within their midst.
