BOOK CHOICE

I will also be reading "Savage Inequalities" by Kozol. I actually just received it this morning and have been reading it since. So far, I have found that I am mostly angry with the sad realities of how public education, segregated education, has not changed much where it was in 1991. So far it looks like not much has changed in public education since the 1960's. The stories, so far, seem somewhat exaggerated, but I know they are not. My personal experience speaks to the disparity and the continual failure to educate America's poorest (almost always) minority children. I am enjoying Kozol and hope to finish the book in the next couple of days.
