Powerful video in video section shows Chicago lawyer/parent in brilliant speech.
His name is Matt Farmer, and he points out how the leader of the Chicago Lab school would agree with public school teachers on most points. It's interesting how he zeroes in on Penny Pritzker, and her statement about training in public schools for the job force.

The fact that Pritzker may be Obama's Commerce Secretary disturbs me.
