The quote that opens this book is from an article titled "In The American PublicEducation System, Black Children Are the New Cotton," written by father, educational activist,and writer Chris Stewart. Stewart's fundamental argument is that "[w]hite America...always[has] an interest in the education of Black folks, but never for the purposes of [Back people's]freedom."6 Instead of being the nurturing environment that builds confidence that America'sBlack youth need to survive in this world, far too many schoolhouses across America (rangingfrom preschool to high school) are nothing more than penitentiaries where Black bodies areprisoners of war.
