Trabian Shorters discusses the power of reframing the term "at-risk youth" as "students" to shift the conversation towards addressing systemic barriers in education. By focusing on students' aspirations to graduate and contribute to society, the unjustness of obstacles becomes more apparent. This episode challenges the harmful stereotypes and scapegoating often associated with at-risk youth, highlighting the need for a systemic approach to address disparities in education.
