Three to read on policing in schools

• The past week's episode of the podcast Have You Heard with Jennifer Berkshire and Jack Schneider looks at how police entered the schools in LA, Chicago, and Boston. If like me, you're more of a reader than a listener, you can find the transcript here. I note here both the interaction with the shifting racial demographics but also the question of power over schools being part of how we end up with police in the schools.
• Jesse Hagopian interviews Minneapolis School Board student representative Nathaniel Genene  in The Nation about the push for Minneapolis to remove police from their public schools. He frames it in part in terms of school climate.
• Anya Kamenetz does a round up of the issue for NPR with lots and lots of useful links, including the ongoing research demonstrating lack of evidence that schools with officers are safety but also ongoing evidence that schools with officers have a greater likelihood of Black and brown children being arrested.
