In August of this year, Dr. Karla was contacted via social media by the amazingly talented journalist Jazmin Towe regarding an article she was working on that focused on the criminalization of Black boys in school….

….. which led the scheduling and engaging in meaningful dialogue about the contextual aspects of the school-to-prison pipeline, trauma, exclusionary discipline, as well as the importance of cultivating brave spaces for Black boys!

On October 12, 2022, Parents officially released the article and Dr. Karla couldn’t be more humbled to have contributed to such a timely article that hopefully will provoke a long overdue conversation.

Thank you Jazmin Towe for such a opportunity to contribute to an exceptionally written article!
