Teresa: It was a good book on facts of what goes on it a black girls life. It gets repetitive it stating the facts.

Linda Yoder: Thoughtful, academically oriented, and disturbing investigation of the disparate impact of discipline on black girls, the book brings together narratives of victims, along with accounts from those trying to rectify the situation. The author also frankly admits that schools adopting reforms can miss the mark. Systems have to change, but love has to be part of it.

Kindle Customer: Pushout explores the harsh realities of black girls in the educational system, many of whom are fighting barriers to even remain in the classroom due to a perception that they are disruptive or incapable of being taught. As early as first grade they are much more likely than their white counterparts to be held back, suspended or expelled. Some are punished for wearing their hair a certain way or asking their teachers too many questions. Trauma due to high rates of poverty, sexual assault and racism is not adequately addressed, and many girls wind up in the school to prison pipeline for minor offenses without hope of finishing their education. The author provides several of these girls an unfiltered voice, and offers possible solutions to helping others like them stay engaged in school and on a path to reaching their goals.
