TY - JOUR PY - 2022// TI - Youth of color social movements for racial justice: the politics of interrogating the school-to-prison pipeline JO - Educational policy A1 - Welton, Anjalé D. A1 - Harris, Tiffany Octavia SP - 57 EP - 99 VL - 36 IS - 1 N2 - Youth social movements for racial justice, especially against police violence, are on the rise. And this broader policy landscape is reflective of how youth are addressing racism in policing in their local context. Therefore, by drawing upon scholarship related to Black Radicalism, activism, and social movements, this study examines how youth of color activists are fighting against the overpolicing of their schools and communities in two specific contexts: Wake County, North Carolina and Chicago, Illinois. This study demonstrates how context shapes youth of color social movement building, that youth are strategic in how they employ activism, and ultimately adults can either impede or help advance youth's demands for justice.
