This book requires readers to remap the circuits that bind schools to prisons and the state and centers how communities-including young men who are locked up and their loved ones-negotiate, and often shatteringly resist, these powerlines. Situating the ‘prison classroom’ within a carceral landscape punctuated by deeply racialized and heteropatriachal practices of removal and premature death, Sabina E. Vaught’s necessary and poetic writing moves activist scholarship into needed and new terrains and pushes readers to mourn, to analyze, and to build struggles for radical freedom that leave no one behind.\"-Erica R.

This is the story of Lincoln prison.” In her Introduction, Sabina E. Vaught passionately details why the subject of prisons and prison schooling is so important. An unprecedented institutional ethnography of race and gender power in one state’s juvenile prison school system, \u003ci\u003eCompulsory\u003c\/i\u003e will have major implications for public education everywhere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVaught argues that through its educational apparatus, the state disproportionately removes young Black men from their homes and subjects them to the abuses of captivity. She explores the various legal and ideological forces shaping juvenile prison and prison schooling, and examines how these forces are mechanized across multiple state apparatuses, not least school. Drawing richly on ethnographic data, she tells stories that map the repression of rightless, incarcerated youth, whose state captivity is the contemporary expression of age-old practices of child removal and counterinsurgency. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThrough a theoretically rigorous analysis of the daily experiences of prisoners, teachers, state officials, mothers, and more, \u003ci\u003eCompulsory\u003c\/i\u003e provides vital insight into the broad compulsory systems of schooling-both Inside prison and in the world Outside-asking readers to reconsider conventional understandings of the role, purpose, and value of state schooling today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003eContents\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction: Take No Prisoners\u003cbr\u003ePart I.
