CAFE Welcomes Guest Speaker Noah Remnick: The History and Future of Policing in Schools
WEDNESDAY, May 26, 2021 | 6:00PM
Doctoral Candidate Noah Remnick will join CAFE on Wednesday, May 26 for a discussion on the history and future of policing in schools. His presentation will outline how school-police partnerships and punitive disciplinary policies arose out of fears of school desegregation and student organizing. He will also discuss the history of student and community resistance to these trends, showing how many did not seek reform but rather sought abolition of school police and student discipline.
Noah is a doctoral candidate at the University of Oxford where he studies carceral history and community resistance. His dissertation follows the history of school policing, discipline, and desegregation in New York City. He teaches American history at Oxford and high school equivalency exam preparation and creative writing at the Manhattan Detention Complex in New York. He has also reported for The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, and The Atlantic.
We hope you join us as CAFE continues our series on policing in schools. CAFE meetings are participatory and open to the public. You may access the meeting via Zoom.
