We wrote this book to set the record straight, to hold accountable the people, policies, and institutions responsible for cheating children; those who have dismantled Black communities, underfunded and privatized public schools, and criminalized Black educators.

We stand with the thousands of teachers, students, and parents who are fighting to reclaim public schools and chart a path toward education justice.
