Prison education programs in the United States
[edit]I will be adding information to the section under "History" in this article to include structural racism and its impacts to historically marginalized groups in the United States. I will first expand the paragraph starting with "Following the Civil War and during the Progressive Era of America" to include the history of slavery being abolished and how that influenced the legal system. I will also discuss the impacts of disparate sentencing and mass incarceration on black people.
I will move the last sentence in the paragraph starting with "Broader socioeconomic inequality and disparities..." under the section "Race and ethnicity" to follow the sentence "In 2021, people of color constituted over two-thirds..." for ease of reading.
I will amend the tab "Prison education" under the section "Features of the criminal justice system" to include the reversal of the Pell Grant ban and peer tutor programs. I will discuss how changes in funding and legislation have revived programs across the United States and who is included in the conversations.[1] Lfreeman333 (talk) 15:23, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
