Uncle Bobbie's welcomes author Monique Morris for a book talk and signing of Pushout: The Criminalization of Black Girls in Schools. In conversation with Dr. Howard Stevenson, Morris will dive in and discuss topics surrounding schools, the justice system, and race.

"In a work that Lisa Delpit calls “imperative reading,” Monique W. Morris (Black Stats, Too Beautiful for Words) chronicles the experiences of Black girls across the country whose intricate lives are misunderstood, highly judged—by teachers, administrators, and the justice system—and degraded by the very institutions charged with helping them flourish. Called “compelling” and “thought-provoking” by Kirkus Reviews, Pushout exposes a world of confined potential and supports the rising movement to challenge the policies, practices, and cultural illiteracy that push countless students out of school and into unhealthy, unstable, and often unsafe futures."
