Description

John Taylor Gatto was an advocate for school reform. He was inside the school system as much as anyone could be, and he saw many specific areas of the system that were hurting our families and children by dumbing us down. Please join me for this heartfelt plea to parents who are not home educating. You can absolutely teach your children at home. SHOW NOTES
