“There is something deeply hypocritical in a society that holds an inner-city child only eight years old "accountable" for her performance on a high-stakes standardized exam but does not hold the high officials of our government accountable for robbing her of what they gave their own kids six or seven years before.”
― The Shame of the Nation: The Restoration of Apartheid Schooling in America
― The Shame of the Nation: The Restoration of Apartheid Schooling in America
“A dream does not die on its own. A dream is vanquished by the choices ordinary people make about real things in their own lives...”
