    Jackie Rae Show Ep 108: Preschool to Prison Pipeline: One Man's Mission to Change the Narrative

    According to A National Survey of Children's Health, 50,000 preschoolers are suspended at least once; on average, 250 preschoolers are expelled or suspended every school day. Overwhelmingly, those children are disproportionately Black. The higher rates of excessive discipline for Black children can lead to a number of issues. Even if the child is not suspended, children understand when they are not seen as good enough and often react negatively to that, leading to higher dropout rates and often incarceration, creating the preschool-to-prison pipeline. Ishmael Pruitt is hoping to change the trajectory for young students who might find themselves in that pipeline. His struggles in college and his years working as a professional in higher education led him to believe that the solution to social change comes through education and empowerment of students. "My life's mission is to stimulate the ambition of our next generation of leaders," says Pruitt, who believes that "when students are able to see themselves beyond their inherited circumstances, their understanding of education is shifted from a destination to a tool that will create better days for themselves, their families, and their communities." This belief led him to become the co-founder and CEO of Project Optimism. This non-profit organization works directly with schools to ensure students see the value of education and are not left behind.

    #IndieArie #JoeRobag #BenSimmons #JamesHarden #JoeBiden Segment 1 - India Arie and Wendy Williams Last week the call was for Black Podcasts and Black Artists to remove their works from Spotify. This week, India Arie walks in back and says Joe is not racist. The problem is, she is 100% wrong. Wendy Williams is making headlines after her former financial advisor, Lori Schiller, claimed the talk show host was not of sound mind and then cut her off from her financial assets. The news was met with social media clowning Williams. While it is fair to say she is not the most likable person, kicking her while she is physically and perhaps mentally down is not the look. Segment 2 - Ben Simmions - James Harden Trade. The only real winner in this trade or the 76ers. Ben Simmons has a mental block that seems to get worse every year and will always hold him back. Segment 3 - Joe Biden's Crack Pipes It's a catchy phrase, but his administration is actually handing out 'Safe Smoking Kits." That hardly sounds better. But, it is the administration's attempt to fund programs which aim to reduce the personal and public health effects of drug use. But the real question is why not use that money to end drug use, rather than use drugs safely. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/jackieraetv/support

    Segment 1 - If We Stand With #IndiaArie For far too long #JoeRogan has been getting paid despite the fact that he is often racist. The good thing is, he does not insult our intelligence by apologizing for what he clearly feels in his heart. But once again there is one among us, who has decided to take a stand against the platform that supports Joe Rogan and his platform. We need to stand with her and follow suit. Segment 2 - If We Stand With #BrianFlores Here we are again. A Black Man in the NFL is taking a stand against the widespread racism in the NFL. The last time this happened Black Players in the NFL showed no backbone, players like Dez Bryant decided to shuck and jive for an owner who issued racist statements, and only a handful of players stood with a man who was trying to change the system. This can't keep happening. If we are going to refuse to make the sacrifice and stand with those who are trying to force change, then we can't keep marching, crying, and praying when change never comes. Segment 3 - If we Stand with #WhoopieGoldberg Like it or not the woman was not wrong. I am a Black Woman. I can also be Jewish. Why? Because being Jewish is about religion not about race. But, when you control the narrative you can control the message. Whoopie's suspension has nothing to do with her being incorrect in her statements. It's about those who hold her job, and therefore her career and income in their hands holding the power. There is power in numbers. When you have the numbers you can dictate what is right and what is wrong. If we as Black People decided to join our numbers, we could create our own narrative. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/jackieraetv/support
