Earlier this week, I did an interview with Jeff Schechtman on KVON radio in Napa, California. Audio is now online. Here’s Jeff’s blog post about our talk:
The President said last night that when kids, especially inner city kids, drop out of school they are not only letting themselves down, but they are letting down their country. A noble thought, but what does it take to get these often poor children to to compete with their middle-class peers? Geoffrey Canada, asked himself that question, and proceeded to found the Harlem Children’s Zone, where he is testing ideas about education, poverty and parenting and trying to turn around the lives of Harlem’s children.
