  • When I think of how much Wendy Kopp and the KIPP founders got involved with corporations like Union Carbide, the Edison Project and the Bush admiistration, it. reminds me of a new Springsteen song. "A long walk home."

    "you know you're lucky to be born in this town,

    nobody crowds you,

    nobody goes it alone,

    you know the flag flying over the courthouse,

    means some things are set in stone,

    who we are,

    and what we'll do,

    AND WHAT WE WON'T"

  • I am a Houston teacher who wants to communicate with TFA teachers. I respect your work, but believe TFA leaders are too close to conservatives. They blame schools and teachers, not our unequal society, for every education failing. This goes back to TFA's founding, when Wendy Kopp built an alliance with Union Carbide, whose negligence caused 100,000 casualties in India, and continued with her hookup with the Edison Project, which wanted to replace public schools with corporate schools.
