Jonathon Kozol - you're my new hero! I meant to listen to one episode of your Education in America lecture and ended up listening to all 6 of them. Incredible, eloquent, honest and moving. I love your parting words"The old trees and the foolishness of children will outlive us all. Life goes so FAST, use it well.
Great lecture! I wish I would've heard this when I was 18. These are life changing ideas that need to be out there. Yet, a little more than a 1000 viewings, don't worry. we have time. HA!
This man is a genius. This lecture series was great - I actually used parts 2 and 3 in a presentation I gave for a Community Psychology course in my grad program on systemic discrimination in education. He speaks so well on this issue. Thanks for these - I've already recommended this lecture to friends and family.
Such great humor! Thank you for speaking out for those who have no voice.. I am sharing on the Education Now FB page and my own fb wall..

I do want to offend you in any way, but what would you have done differently at age 18?
By the way, I am asking because I am 19.

Who is the guy sitting by him staring at the audience? another speaker? bodyguard? sometimes he has his hand over his eyes like he's hiding, weird

What a heart breaking topic. I think what's been done to public schools on the federal level in the last ten years is atrocious!!!
