David Stovall, Ph.D., is Professor of African-American Studies and Criminology, Law and Justice at the University of Illinois of Chicago.

“This compelling collection of voices of radical educators could not arrive at a more urgent time. It serves as a clenched fist with the power to break ideological chains. Read it and take back our schools!”—Peter McLaren, University of California, Los Angeles “State property—that’s what you are in prison, and that’s what you are in school. This volume explains why one leads to the other and suggests on-the-ground tactics to end the schooling structures that feed our shameful prison nation. Read this book and ‘put your bodies upon the gears.’”—Emery Petchauer, author of Hip-Hop Culture in College Students’ Lives: Elements, Embodiment, and Higher Edutainment “How did we become a society that handcuffs its young and warehouses them in penal institutions instead of educating them? From Education to Incarceration answers that question and offers an intelligently crafted overview of how ill-advised and inhumane practices and policies in the United States have betrayed generations of young persons, with suggestions for how we can up-end these transgressions. Educators, attorneys, youth organizers, and many others write with authority and conviction in this timely, relevant, and eminently readable book.”—Heidi Boghosian, Executive Director, National Lawyers Guild
