  Suspended Education - School...

  Every year, millions of public school students are suspended. This overused punishment removes students from the classroom, but it does not improve their behavior. Instead, suspension disrupts their education, harming the students, their families, and their schools. Black students suffer most within this broken system, experiencing a far greater risk of school punishment and the significant harms that accompany it. Many activists and scholars have considered how school punishment increases racial inequity, but few have thought to ask why. Why do we punish students the way we do, and why have we allowed this harmful practice to impact the lives of our nation's children? 
   
   
   
  In Supended Education, Aaron Kupchik shows that suspensions were not intended as a behavior management tool. Instead, they were designed to remove unwanted students from the classroom. Through statistical analysis and in-depth case studies of schools in Massachusetts and Delaware, Kupchik reveals how suspension rates skyrocketed after the 1954 Brown v. Board of Education decision, serving as an unofficial means of removing Black children from newly desegregated schools. His groundbreaking research traces the legacy of these segregationist movements, demonstrating that school districts with more desegregation-related legal battles from the 1950s onward suspend more Black students today.

  Helmet and Spear - Stories From...

  Rev A.J Church N.A

  A light narrative of most of the major military engagements of the Greek and Roman worlds, from Marathon to the demise of Attila the Hun, intended for the use of young people. Church takes a fairly straight-forward view of history, plainly indicating that in each instance the outcome was ultimately 'for the best.' 
  In this thrilling collection of tales, the author takes readers on a captivating journey through the wars of ancient Greece and Rome. With vivid descriptions of battles, tactics, and strategies, as well as insights into the personalities and motivations of the men and women who fought in these epic conflicts, this book is a must-read for anyone interested in military history and the ancient world. 
  I have told again in this volume some familiar stories, using mostly the original authorities, but availing myself, where it was possible, of the help of Plutarch, whose biographies are always rich in picturesque details. These narratives never lose their interest, and they have this special significance, that they illustrate what we all at least desire to believe, that results of abiding good come out of the losses and sorrows of war. I have sought to draw out this thought with some detail in my Epilogue. 
  A Must Listen to for any fan of history who is interested in macro histories of Ancient Europe concentrating on Greece, Carthage and Rome. It also contains details of Caesar's campaigns, Hannibal, Hasdrubal and the slow fall of the Roman Empire
