Product Description
Broken Keys Don't Unlock Doors: Urban Education from the Voices of the Youth
From the uncensored and unedited voices of Baltimore’s youth: we have stories to tell. This book is filled with poems, personal narratives, and essays about racism, discrimination, corruption, and violence in urban education and our distrust in the system that is supposed to be supporting us. Read about the structural doors that need unlocking, keys to problems that need fixing, and our poetic reflections on finding a way out of the trap. Each handwritten story was pulled from the heart and there was true love poured into the illustrations. This is our contribution to our city and our world. This is Broken Keys Don’t Unlock Doors.
