Publisher's Summary
You will be thrilled to find a book that answers what happened to America so you can help heal our beloved country.
In 1995, Karen Horwitz, aka the CHANGE EVERYTHING TEACHER, discovered our schools suffered from the 'Harvey Weinstein syndrome'—the powerful get their way no matter how wicked until someone finds the courage to expose them. She wrote a memoir to do to those running our schools what that brave actress who testified against Weinstein did—expose and end wrongdoing of a different kind. Listeners will learn why we have school shootings and how to end them and restore democracy.
She names the corruption that transformed our schools from revered institutions to mere shells White Chalk Crime™ and reveals how it dismantled democracy. The sheer audacity and disbelief of this corruption prompted her to write a book so that citizens could comprehend its extent. She warns, "There are consequences for a society that allows evil an honored home. One is school shootings, which are the tip of the democracy-destroying iceberg, taking our country down Titanic-style. Abraham Lincoln warned, 'The philosophy of the schoolroom in one generation will be the philosophy of government in the next.' When I taught, it was as if Trump ran our schools."
She reveals that those in power secretly thwart school reform and presents an 'idea invention' that will revolutionize education as Jeff Bezos did to marketing and Steve Jobs to computers. It includes a blueprint for top-notch schools that ensures a home for great teachers and tells about a grassroots movement for change.
This book is a beacon of hope, showing that change is within reach. It inspires the listener to feel optimistic about the future of education and democracy. This engaging and insightful book on education takes those who cherish democracy and fear autocracy on a journey deep inside our schools, where the root of many of this nation's challenges lies. It will change a whole lot.
