Richard Borge for The Progressive on Education

Apr 22, 2014

Here is a piece illustrator Richard Borge just did for The Progressive.

"The new threat to public education is not just resegregation, but also an insidious movement to undermine public schools and abandon the children in them, especially the historically disadvantaged. School closings, a “test-and-punish” model of education reform that invites the takeover of high-poverty districts by private companies, and the replacement of democratically elected school boards with “CEOs” are among the threats to the democratic institution of public education."

Thanks to Ruth Conniff for powerful words to illustrate. -- Richard Borge
