This FAILED Prison Policy is Destroying American Schools

[Music] Thank you The collapse of quality in American Public education is no secret and the Causes are legion every year our public Schools graduate students who can barely Read or write and have no hope of Finding any Nation other than the United States on a map Some of the factors involved in this Degradation are beyond the control of The school system but many are the Result of deliberate policy choices Implemented by administrators Due to a flurry of reporting and an Overwhelming volume of video evidence Parents are increasingly aware of the Nefarious racial and gender Ideology Now Being taught in classrooms but most Parents are not aware that woke ideology Has deeply impacted the discipline Structure in public schools as well A failed prison policy known as Restorative justice has now become the Standard disciplined model in many American schools even in deeply Conservative States and students are Paying the price Restorative justice began as a movement In the 1970s to offer a therapeutic Alternative to incarceration There's plenty of academic jargon Layered on top of the process but the Theory was that by making criminals face

Their victims and talk to the impact of Their actions Rehabilitation could be Achieved with a reduction in or complete Abolition of jail time It doesn't take a rocket scientist to See the problem here this means placing Victims in contact with their abusers And subjecting them to additional trauma For the benefit of the Criminal The motivation for bureaucrats was never Really reconciliation for the victims But instead an overall reduction in Incarceration you see the left was just As interested in releasing unrepentant Criminals onto the streets in the 1970s As it is today and restorative justice Provided the opportunity for bureaucrats To reduce metrics like incarceration Time and duration of prison sentences The literature in favor of restorative Justice also advertises its human rights Analysis that emphasizes the factors of Race and class in the over incarceration Of people This approach is regularly presented as A way to reduce the disproportion Incarceration of African Americans Restorative justice was designed from The ground up to create a woke criminal Justice system by actively reducing the Punishment of criminals in the hopes of Driving down incarceration metrics for Favored minorities This system was unpopular with both

Victims and The Wider public but the Movement was not defeated Restorative justice is still practiced In several States today with varying Levels of victim participation the Process has also been translated into a System used primarily for conflict Resolution inside the prison system Itself Inmates who have wronged each other talk Through their disagreements confronting One another in a therapeutic environment And live traditional corrective Punishment It's this incarnation of restorative Justice that has been brought into the Public education system As insane as it might seem the Government treats schools as prisons for Children and applies the same model of Conflict resolution in both institutions School administrators like almost every Bureaucratic manager in the modern world Are driven by metrics The funding for schools and the bonuses Awarded to their administrators are Based on test scores graduation rates And number of disciplinary actions Suspensions are bad for metrics not only Because they drive up the number of Disciplinary actions but because Students of color tend to accrue them in Disproportionate numbers Every administrator wants to reduce

Their disciplinary metrics and is aware That reducing those numbers among Minority students in particular is Desirable The advocates for restorative justice Championed its ability to do both while Stressing its origins in indigenous Paradigms As you might imagine equity and Inclusion are prioritized and discipline Has made a dirty word adherence to woke Doctrine becomes the Central purpose of Conflict resolution and punishment is Treated like a backward and outdated Notion When a student misbehaves and disrupts Class especially if that disruption Comes as the result of conflict with Another student they're not punished but Instead placed in a therapeutic session The student talks through their feelings With the child or teacher that they were In conflict with in theory the student Is made to confront their negative Actions understand the consequences of Those actions for those around them and Ask forgiveness from the affected Parties This allows the student to return to Class Having learned the error of their Ways without traditional punishment In practice this very rarely happens and The student immediately resumes Disruptive behavior Upon returning to

The classroom Restorative justice like most Progressive ideology fails due to a Flawed understanding of human nature we All make mistakes and understanding the Impact that our actions have on others Can be an important step but it isn't Sufficient in our fallen and tragic State humans willingly act to harm Others even when they understand the Negative outcomes those actions produce For some the simple realization that They're causing others pain will be Sufficient but let's be honest often the Causing of the pain was the entire point Many adults are more than happy to cause Willful harm to others and children are Still forming their social and moral Understanding of the world and don't Have rational control over their more Destructive impulses Many students simply aren't taught at Home the moral values that would allow Them to place someone else's well-being Above their own immediate gratification Through Vengeance or amusement In these cases punishment not emotional Understanding drives behavioral Modification A student may not immediately care if They disrupt learning or hurt another Student's feelings but they will care if They're being isolated from their Friends and lose their privileges

More importantly removing a disruptive Student allows other children in the Classroom to learn and not be punished With a more chaotic and unsafe learning Environment None of this is any kind of deep Insight Parents and teachers of course have Known this for thousands of years but These simple truths are ignored because They produce outcomes that are Undesirable to the bureaucrats that Operate the American educational system Many states like Florida have realized The danger of woke Doctrine and taken Action to ban the teaching of critical Race Theory and gender ideology but Restorative justice has flown under the Radar and allowed woke ideology to Become the foundation of disciplinary Action for school districts in Florida And other conservative States across the Country That a failed model of prison discipline Made its way into American schools in The first place should say it all but The incentives that drove its adoption Are rather nefarious Administrators know that disciplinary Actions need to go down if they're going To receive raises and promotions Simply put restorative justice allows School administrators to hide the Problem pretending that a brief Therapeutic session has resolved a much

Deeper issue and manipulates statistics In their favor Bullied children are forced to pretend That their aggressor has made amends so The offending student can be placed Immediately back into the class without Consequences Principles are also aware that the Disproportionate suspension of students Of color will be seen as racial bias by The school administration not a failure Of the individual students and value the Ability of restorative justice to reduce That metric as well Parents and conservative education Advocates have led a Grassroots movement To remove the teaching of woke ideology From the classroom but they didn't Understand how deep the rot had spread Wokeness is so ingrained in public Education that it's shaped even the most Basic disciplinary actions in Conservative school districts Parents and legislators have made Impressive progress in the fight against Critical race Theory and gender ideology But they must now turn their attention To the dangerous practice of restorative Justice as well Students deserve a classroom where They're allowed to learn and restorative Justice seeks to Rob them of that Environment in the name of woke politics And corrupt School administration
