  "Social Security Basics" is a comprehensive yet accessible guide that demystifies the complex world of Social Security benefits. Author Devin Carroll, drawing from his extensive experience helping distressed and confused clients, has created this essential resource to help readers confidently navigate the Social Security system. 
  The book is strategically divided into two main parts. The first part covers the fundamental aspects of Social Security that are crucial for everyone to understand. The second part specifically addresses the unique rules and considerations for public servants, with detailed explanations of the Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP) and the Government Pension Offset (GPO). 
  Carroll's motivation for writing this book stemmed from witnessing firsthand how the complicated and verbose nature of Social Security rules often left people frustrated and potentially missing out on their rightful benefits. Through years of studying, speaking engagements, and writing about Social Security, he realized that most questions could be answered through a solid grasp of the basic principles.

  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.
