EDUCATION & CAPITALISM VIRTUAL BOOK-CLUB
Education&Capitalism Study Guide/Book-Club Toolkit
From the back of the book:
A conservative, bipartisan consensus dominates the discussion about what’s wrong with our schools and how to fix them. It offers “solutions” that scapegoat teachers, vilify unions, and impose a market mentality. But in each case, students lose. This book, written by teacher-activists, speaks back to that elite consensus and offers an alternative vision of learning for liberation.
You can buy the book from Haymarket or Amazon.com (it is cheaper here but Haymarket is a leftist publisher and they do alot of good work so support them if you can) or you could request a copy of it at your local library. We will be summarizing, analyzing, and opening the channels for discussion over every chapter and section of the book. Our readers are more than welcome to submit questions, comments or clarifications about the book they have in our inbox.
Ideally, the material we produce here will allow interested followers to feel confident hosting a study-group/book-club over Education and Capitalism.
