Reaction to “Won’t Back Down” in New York City by real parents
The corporate backed movie Won’t Back Down which is suppose to be a glowing Hollywood style version of theParent Trigger is being shown around the country and is being personally promoted by the edu reform queen of the hour, Michelle Rhee.
Is this movie for real? Of course not, it’s an expensive propaganda. And from what I’ve been reading, it’s also a lousy movie. Real parents are now coming out at showings and providing the public with what real parent power looks like.
Check out a video of what happened in New York this week at a promotional event for the movie.
