Summary:
"It is the first book examining the experiences of Black and Latinx students with disabilities and their families with market-driven educational policies. It offers a unique theoretical contribution examining the relationship between disability, race, urban space, and market-driven educational policies. It uses powerful and emotional narratives that unveil the collateral damages of market-driven policies. It explains how Black and Latinx parents of students with disabilities experience and resist pushout practices in charter schools. It identifies the consequences of pushout practices in charter schools that are more severe that forcing parents to move to another school"-- Provided by publisher.
