  This book throws new light on the issue of exclusions relating to race. It examines real problems and the attempts made in school to deal with them. A framework is created for understanding the complexities of individual identities within schools and showing the processes of exclusion to be both contextual and historically specific. The author draws on her own experience and research to reveal the racialized punishment industry that operates in many schools.
