Description of Kill Them Before They Grow: Misdiagnosis of African American Boys in American Classrooms


Examining how African American males end up in dead-end classes, this book explores what must be done to change this trend, asking such questions as What happens to these boys in special education? and How can educators and communities reduce the number of African American boys receiving Ritalin and ultimately dropping out?
