In this explosive memoir, Geno Young pulls back the curtain on the dysfunction he witnessed inside Chicago’s public schools and surrounding suburban districts. As a conservative young Black male stepping into classrooms filled with chaos, politics, and alarming academic decline, he reveals a system that is not only broken but actively resistant to being fixed.

This book is a warning for parents, educators, and communities nationwide. What’s happening in Chicago is coming to a school near you. You can help stop it or suffer the consequences.
