    2016
    Edition 1
    • The teachers interviewed in the book work in a vortex between public education and the prison-industrial complex, two of the most powerful engines for social and economic justice, each affecting young people in dramatic and often permanent ways
    • I Hope I Don’t See You Tomorrow documents aspects of juvenile incarceration education as an area of academic inquiry while offering the opportunity to begin a dialogue about the influence of various agency ideologies upon how we imagine what education means in everyday life inside a juvenile detention center
    • The various issues of pedagogical practice at Passages Academy include: the power relations between the teachers and the students, as well as between the teachers and the institution; the ideologies of the teachers and those of the institution; the rituals of the classroom; and the resistance of the teachers and the students
    • Inside Passages Academy, the young people in class are seen as students who have been sent here to learn; they are always referred to as students, never as prisoners, inmates, or detainees. They are not just locked away in a cell to sit around and wallow, scraping each day into the wall. Rather, the Passages system asks them to reflect, examine what they did (or did not do) and take some responsibility. At its best, the school can provide an emotional and spiritual experience that can alter the trajectory of its student’s lives
