31. It's not a solution for our community here - at least not so far.
If it were, that would be another story altogether. But when we're shown a movie that implies that NOT getting in to the KIPP school is equivalent to . . . a hopeless future - well, that's just silly. Maybe in that one situation in Harlem - but that's not why they're showing this movie nationwide with big education panels and previews, now is it? It's being painted as Our Salvation. I'm just lifting the curtain to show people there's just a little man back there throwing levers. It's no miracle.
