In this powerful episode, we speak with a special education director who is also the mother of a child with a disability. Together, we unpack the recent executive order encouraging school discipline policies that move away from diversity, equity, and inclusion frameworks. Our guest explains how this policy shift is not just a bureaucratic change—it’s a direct threat to students from marginalized communities, especially Black, Latino, and disabled children, who already face disproportionate rates of suspension, expulsion, and restraint. We explore what this means for inclusive education, how families and educators can respond, and why ignoring equity in discipline isn’t neutral—it’s dangerous.
