Thanks for the SOS plug, Diane Ravitch
See what Diane Ravitch blog reader and others have to say about SOS and our upcoming conference in D.C.
I also look forward to hearing Jonathan Kozol speak. I believe the issue of civil rights is at the very core of education reform and Jonathan’s work will lead us to create a 21st century model that puts civil rights in the driver’s seat. While corporate reformers tout their ideas as a means of achieving civil rights, the policies they have mandated have effectively segregated America’s schools to a point worse than the 1950′s. This “savage” impact is what drives many of us who are battling corporate reform.
