Nancy A. Heitzeg: The School-to-Prison Pipeline: Education, Discipline, and Racialized Double Standards

---

In Nancy Heitzeg’s book, The School-to-Prison Pipeline: Education, Discipline, and Racialized Double Standards, she describes the hardships that African American ado-lescents endure through their schooling as they are dis-criminated and treated unfairly through discipline according to their race. Heitzeg introduces readers to the
idea of the school-to-prison pipeline by providing research on what the pipeline is, how it was created, and how it continues to be an issue for adolescents. She goes on to
explain the ways in which society impacts the pipeline and how certain aspects of the modern day schooling system further the discrimination of the pipeline. She also dis-cusses the advantages that whites have over people of color because of the medical model of treatment. This treatment option is made most available to whites, as blacks are seen as criminal long before they commit crime and are there-fore unable to be ‘‘rehabilitated’’. Finally Heitzeg discusses the ways in which the school-to-prison pipeline can be attenuated and the way that some good-intentioned pro-grams cause much of the problems in schools. Education centers that seek to provide zero tolerance learning spaces and police presence in schools are indeed adding to the causes of the school-to-prison pipeline. In conclusion, Heitzeg offers an educational research outlet for readers to confront a major issue of juvenile justice, uncover the societal factors, and receive a call to action that challenges the programs we consider beneficial in schools.
