Description

In Chapter 6 of 9, educator Diana Wilmot shares why she left her job as a New York City Civilian Complaint Board confidential investigator to teach math at a Brooklyn charter school. As an investigator, Wilmot saw consistent police misconduct filing themes, namely early teen African American boys filing complaints after late night police encounters in parks. Wilmot chooses teaching as means to give city children a reason to stay in school and get excited about education.
