Train hard, fight easy
I lurk this thread occasionally just to read replies that have Newark street names in them, and I try to match the street names to lyrics that Redman referenced them in, in the past.

The young Brothers he chained up like animals while he was in charge of the Essex County Juvenile Detention Center won't miss him. The detention center staff that he mistreated bullied and dismissed when they spoke up against his abuse of the juveniles won't miss him.

Perhaps you're confusing me with a younger poster.
Clark was tough on students, so it stands to reason that he was tougher on convicted youth offenders.
"Locking up prisoners", who wear handcuffs and leg shackles for court appearances?
Clark was heavy handed in his approach and left bullied disgruntled employees behind in a bunch of places. If this was a gotcha, again I'm old enough to remember the praise and criticism that Mr. Clark received.
As far as he saw it,business as usual wasn't getting it done so he shook things up a bit. Business as usual, as we've seen leads us to what has happened since he left Paterson East sideand the Youth House.

It's about Clark, not you
It's about Clark, not you
He used over the top and abusive tactics to make a name for himself and further his career. He gave zero f-cks about the youth he was, at least on paper, suppose to be helping

Actually, the people who givezero fukks are the oneswho are there just to pik up a paycheck. I've heard of public school teachers/administrators saying that directly to students, so I'm sure that Corrections Officers say the same things to convicts.
Clark was trying to shake up that correctional facility decades ago, instead of just warehousing those kids and releasing them back to the streets, which is what the system does.
Youth House today is probably a thousand times worse than when Clark was removed, but hey, at least everybody is still getting a pay check.

Joe Clark's bombast and unconventional methods, does not prove that he was trying to educate, as a principal, or rehabilitate, as juvenile detention director, any more than any other employee .

Here is an article from 2002 which details what his critics and supporters had to say at the time about his leadership at the Youth House.

You're entitled to your personal views on how Mr. Clark moved. The improvements in test scores at Paterson East side are documented. The last article points to increased results at the high school housed at the Youth House when he was in charge. It mentions that other youth detention centers around the country were studying and trying to replicate what was going on there.
Despite your personal views about him, the notion that he wasn't trying to educate students anymore than other employees or than previous principal/director doesn't seem to hold up.
Article is very honest about the rules that he violated at the Youth House. Mentions his rationale for doing it, and the threat that those prisoners posed to other offenders and to corrections officers. Clark's actions there are consistent with how he operated at Eastside.
For violating the rules,ultimately Clark had to pay but there were incremental improvements in the ability of regular students to get an education in both places.
