Those Who Can’t [EPUB ebook] 
A Danger to Themselves and Others

‘We shape the future society through the ways in which we educate or fail to educate our youth.’ - Patrick Nichols

A gritty look into education in the inner city as told through the experiences of a teacher who struggled with trauma, addiction, and PTSD. It peers into the worlds ofteenagers whose lives often have been shattered by addiction and violence. The experiences of both youth and educator ask, ‘What is the purpose of fourteen years of formalized education that doesn’t even prepare a person to earn a livable wage? How might we reimagine this critical component of our society to better serve us all?’ Told in a fast paced style, it is raw, introspective, poignant, and occasionally humorous.
