A Call for Revolution! Comments on the Crisis of Public Education Based on Standardization and Assessment

Frankly, we need a revolution—big, BIG changes in our collective value system—like putting human beings—human life and the evolution of the species—above corporate profits . . . health and education are basic human rights especially in a wealthy nation.

They own the airwaves, the discourse, the terminology, the definitions, the dialogue, the textbooks and the discussions.
