When the System Fails,
It’s Time to Roar.
What began as one mother’s fight for justice became a movement for change. Roar at the Table was born out of author Jatoyia Armour’s journey to advocate for her son, Jamir, whose education rights were challenged in a legal battle that reshaped everything she believed about the system — and herself.
That experience didn’t end in a courtroom. It grew into a calling. Today, Roar at the Table stands as both a guide and a lifeline for parents navigating the complexities of special education, empowering them to speak up with clarity, courage, and conviction.
When the school system fails to deliver, parents often feel powerless. Roar at the Table changes that. Through honest storytelling and practical advocacy tools, Jatoyia Armour shares how her personal experience fighting for her son’s rights transformed her into an unstoppable advocate — and how you can do the same for your child.
This book helps parents understand their rights, prepare for IEP meetings, communicate effectively with schools, and protect their children’s futures. It’s not written from theory — it’s written from battle-tested experience.
Key Features:
Learn to prepare for IEP meetings with clarity and confidence.
Understand your rights and how to use them effectively.
Build stronger, more collaborative relationships with educators.
"You don’t have to whisper to be respected — sometimes you need to roar"
From One Mother’s Fight to Every Parent’s Voice
