Invitation: Book Discussion: Underground History of Public Education

Virtual friends of mine are hosting a Yahoo group that will read and discuss John Taylor Gatto's "Underground History of American Education" and you are encouraged to join. I highly recommend reading this book. It's not your usual light summer beach read, but you'll be a better advocate for your child's education as a result. It's long, it's wordy, it's enlightening, it's nearly impossible to believe at times but its well worth your time. My own pre-publication copy is filled with notes I was compelled to scribble down as I read some of this astonishing material during my read through several years ago. I've joined the list and I hope to see you there.
