Literature Review of Latinx Education Experience: School-to-Prison Pipeline

• In Event: AERA Research-in-Progress Roundtable Session 1
  In Invited Roundtable: Latinx Student Experiences: Curriculum, Pedagogy, Identity, and the School to Prison Pipeline (Table 3)

Abstract

A work in progress of a systemic literature review utilizing a Critical Race Theory lens and concepts of Interest convergence and Race-evasiveness to explore what research says about 1) how the education system has directed Latinx Students into the school-to-prison pipeline and 2) how literature discusses structural racism as a root issue in the school-to-prison pipeline. Because Latinx youth are the fastest growing population nationally and within the prison system (Seroczynski & Jobst, 2016; Valles & Villalpando, 2021), it is essential to understand what policies are resulting in Latinx youth being incarcerated at such a high rate.
