When starting the research for my final project, I spent a lot of
time focusing on statistics and facts that were relevant to my topic all about
the school to prison pipeline. While looking for research, I came across a very
relevant and heartbreaking inforaphic from SuspensionStories.com. This
graphic put may ideas into perspective when thinking about the school to prison
pipelines. One of the facts that stood out to me the most was that black
students were three and a half time more likely to be suspended than whites.
After seeing this fact I felt that I have been very ignorant to the real issue
that is at hand when it comes to the school to prison pipeline. It made me want to research more and more on
the topic. I have provided the link for you all to look at the infographic as
well.

Shelbie, this is SO interesting and it reminds me of a video I came across the other day. I'm not sure if you've found it in your research, but I thought I'd share it anyway! :)
