Posted by Drexel University on April 25, 2016
Public school in America are under attack. Reformers seek to turn our public education system over to private investors. Communities are catching on and fighting back. Education INC tells the story of what happens when a local public school district is turned over to corporate ED reformers and how a community fights back to keep control. Following the documentary film, Drexel University School of Education Professor, Dr. Erin McNamara Horvat will moderate a talk on issues raised in the film. The talk will feature State Rep James R. Roebuck, Education Committee, Democratic Chairmen, Philadelphia Councilwoman, Helen Gym, councilwoman-at-large and Mark B. Miller, School Board Director, Centennial School District.
