Description
John Taylor Gatto, author of Dumbing Us Down, investigates the secrets of the American school system and shows that the underground history of educational strategies promoted by government and industry leaders for over a century included the creation of a system that keeps real power in the hands of very few people. John Taylor Gatto was a teacher for 30 years in New York public schools, where he won many awards, including being named State Teacher of the Year twice, and is the author of many books. “It’s time to take our schools back. If they mean to have a war, let it begin now.” John Taylor Gatto
