The purpose and origins of public education - John Gatto

[emazur]

Here's a 10 minute clip from Gatto's speech "Beyond Schooling". The whole speech is awesome, and the 10 mins that follow this segment is very revealing, but I thought I'd just tube this clip as something short and easily digestible - good for sharing with people who are oblivious to the issues of public education and state control

Here is one of his works that is a very thought-provoking read and available online.
