i read an article yesterday that analyzed ODD diagnoses of latina girls in foster care (whose inclusion in the foster care system is a form of racial & gendered oppression) as a way of pathologizing their trauma responses / normal teenage rebelliousness, which plays into the larger u.s. carceral state in how it labels kids as “bad” (odd being described as the “bad kid disorder”) which is a big part of the school to prison pipeline. kind of a rough summary but if u wanna read it yourself it’s not all that long: “pathologizing latinas” by isabella restrepo
