Abstract

This study experimentally manipulated race and former incarceration status to test the impact of the intersection of these identities on discipline. Among transfer students, teachers disciplined Black students more severely than White students. However, among students transferring from juvenile detention centers, teachers disciplined White students more severely than Black students.
