Education Reform Distractions - The Miseducation of Cities
Public charter vs. traditional public schools, local communities vs. outside reformers, black vs. white. There are many distractions and red herrings in discussions about education reform.
My guest, Dr. Andre Perry, has put many of those distractions on the table in his fascinating novel, The Garden Path: The Miseducation of a City. The novel is set in post-Katrina New Orleans, which has become a key education reform battleground. In Dr. Perry's take, the students prevail over all else. As the former CEO of a charter school network in New Orleans and a university professor there, Dr. Perry crafted The Garden Path on a solid foundation of personal experience.

Poverty and Education
Why is it important to talk about poverty in education? How do we do that in a way that is respectful and meaningful? Many times, discussions about education reform intentionally conflate race and class.

Facing Criticism in the Oil Industry
All of us who have spent any time in the oilfield have endured criticism of some sort. Usually it stems from environmental purposes, and from lack of education. As a family, we have moved more times then we should following the industry, and have endured an awful lot of rejection and negative behavior, just simply because of our career choice. For example, when we first moved into the boom town that we currently reside in, cost of living was a direct reflection of oilfield judgment. Rent is outrageous, and the first question they ask before you are even allowed to look at a home, is if you are oilfield. If you reply yes, rent seems to go up, or the deposite is higher. If you want to take your camper to the local campground for a vacation, they assume you are oilfield looking for living accommodations in their facility and the price goes up. I may be just an average person, but I cant help but wonder, why on earth, any of that should matter... as if oilfield money is dirty or something... money is money, it spends the same no matter where it comes from. This episode is going to focus on how we handle these uncomfortable situations.
