Season 7
Episode 156
Published 6 months, 2 weeks ago
Description
This week on Black v. The Board of Education, we’re joined by Dr. Charles Bell to discuss his book No Restraint: Disabled Children and Institutionalized Violence in America’s Schools. He breaks down how restraint policies—often framed as safety measures—can become harmful, disproportionately impacting disabled students. We explore who these policies protect, how families are silenced, and what real accountability should look like when schools cross the line.
