Check out our new article in the flagship journal of #sociology other professors have told me you can’t do work that serves the public while publishing in top journals. They were wrong. Thanks to my co-authors @J_M_IBARRA and @GregPrieto for their amazing work. #ucsb #justice

Watch this 10-minute clip from @frontlinepbs @thepushouts about Victor Rios and his fight against the school-to-prison pipeline. "Education is a way up and a way out," says Martin Flores. pbs.org/wgbh/frontline/artic… #EquityEDU
Victor Rios & I were both activists at Berkeley HS in the 90s. Now ~25 years after Frontline aired School Colors (a look at Berkeley HS 40 yrs after Brown v. Board), his story is reframed and extended. Don't miss your chance to see this powerful film! #EquityEDU @drvictorrios ✊

No one should be denied the right to an education. Research shows that people who are incarcerated & participate in college ed programs are 48% less likely to recidivate & are more likely to experience better economic opportunities on release. It’s time to #RestorePell Grants.

These children in the Philippines completed a handwashing program last year & learned healthy behaviors! Since partnering with @Cleantheworld in 2011, we've distributed over 6 million bars of soap, creating healthy communities. #globalhandwashingday

Children whose caregivers are incarcerated are up to 6 times more likely to end up in the criminal justice system themselves. Let's #BreakTheCycle by diverting parents away from incarceration and toward support services that heal. #SB394 cut50.org/casb394
