Problem Recent scholarship indicates that the suspension rates of girls of color are increasing and their disciplinary outcomes mirror their outcomes in the judicial system. Black girls are often reprimanded for being defiant, disruptive, and disrespectful, all of which are subjective judgements of educators. (Annamma et al.; 2019, Gregory et al., 2010; Losen & Skiba, 2010; Monroe, 2009)
