Suspended display coming this week

A display from the African American Museum of Iowa will be setup at JPL sometime this week and will be here until March 3rd.

Examine the role public schools play in funneling students into the prison system inĀ Suspended: Systemic Oppression in our Schools, an original exhibition developed by the African American Museum of Iowa. Elements of the criminal justice system have entered public schools around the country, resulting in zero tolerance policies and student policing that disproportionately effect children of color.
