Paperback. Condition: Very Good. This book is a memoir of the author's struggle to survive racism and poverty during the Civil Rights Era. Her mother called her Francie Mae. She and her family lived in a world that was confusing, painful and difficult to understand. She lived her entire childhood in poverty and shares her journey of survival. She was a curious child and sought answers to her many questions about inequality. She took a journey through a land showing the dark side while searching for her piece of the American dream. She learned to rely on her faith to help her navigate the rough roads ahead. She became socially conscious and advocated for justice. She prevailed She was inspired to write the book when her young granddaughter began asking questions about race. She and many other children are living in a similar world now. Racism and poverty exists and children should know why they exist. Racism is a learned behavior and we owe it to our children to teach them it is wrong. Racism may lead to poverty. These are difficult topics to discuss, yet we owe it to our children to engage in age appropriate conversations. As they struggle to understand the world around them they may have unanswered questions. If not answered, children come to their own conclusions and their conclusions may not be correct. Parents shouldn't remain silent. Avoiding talking about race and poverty will not make it go away. Francie Mae's parents listened to her questions and provided answers in ways she could understand. Many ideologies were formed many years ago. The way people felt and thought became twisted together like a web. If not challenged, the web tangles more. It is time to join together and untangle the web. We owe it to our current and future generations.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. A Brookings Institution Press and the Education Commission of the States publicationBehind the scenes, a revolution is taking place in primary and secondary education. Once thought sacrosanct, the principle of local lay control has come under growing attack. In the 1970s and 1980s, governors sought greater influence by promulgating academic standards and even taking over failing schools. Mayors soon followed, with some wresting control of struggling local school systems. Atop this, the president and Congress greatly extended their reach into U.S. classrooms with enactment of the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001, which requires annual reading and math tests in grades 3 through 8, tougher yardsticks to measure whether pupils are making sufficient progress, and penalties for schools that persistently fall short.The result is a spider's web of responsibility. It is difficult, if not impossible, to figure out where accountability lies. Not only have municipal, state, and federal authorities reasserted control over the separate education government that the nation long ago created, but an array of other institutionsincluding the courts, community-based organizations, and education management companiesare also deeply involved in school decisions. These trends have created a growing gap between those who make education policy and those responsible for the results. What's more, they have contributed to widespread confusion about how to fix public education.In Who's in Charge Here? some of the finest minds in education cut through the confusion to analyze key issues such as the Constitution's role in allocating responsibility for education, the pros and cons of growing federal control, how to ensure a supply of talented teachers for the underprivileged, the impact of the school-choice movement, and the expanding non-academic role of schools. Other chapters explore the history of U.S. education governance and propose principles for creating a new system that especially benefits the children who are most in need. The question of who should be.…
