Re: Who and what would you choose to help inspire a 'rethinking school' brainstor

Lucy,

Thanks for sharing the links! I listened to the second this morning and will
get to the first later today. Quite inspiring. I would love to hear Larry
Rosenstock have an extended conversation with someone like Bill Moyers. His
thinking about education is very interesting and he appears to be fearless
in expressing his thoughts. Very refreshing.
