The Deadly Fraud of Restorative Justice in Schools

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 160

If you had to narrow it down to a single reason our school classrooms and hallways have become so much more dangerous, rough, irreverent, and violent, any honest assessment would identify the widespread misapplication of restorative justice programs. It’s long past time we face up to this fact, which was first exposed in the unbelievably important book Why Meadow Died by Andrew Pollack, whose child died in the Parkland school shooting in Florida, and AEI fellow Max Eden. The problem didn’t start in Parkland, however; it started in Oakland, and it spread as a result of pressures coming from the Office of Civil Rights in Obama’s Department of Education well over a decade ago. As with so much in Woke education, the problem is infinitely worse and more fraudulent than one has any right to expect. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay reads some of Fania Davis’s (Angela Davis’s sister) ridiculous book The Little Book of Race and Restorative Justice along with a report cited by Davis in support of a program that simply doesn’t work. It’s time for America’s parents to stand up to restorative justice and demand it be removed from our schools.
