Tonight, I finally had an opportunity to watch "Won't Back Down". I remember many years back watching "Waiting for Superman", and leaving the theater fired up that something had to be done to "fix" our educational system. I didn't have the same feeling after watching "Won't Back Down". I feel like my eyes have been opened to the "media propaganda" where charter schools are positioned as the solution for failing inner-city schools, while taking not-so-subtle jabs at teachers unions, etc.
I can't wait for the next epic installment of "Won't Back Superman", where a bunch of rich suburban families are able to divert public dollars from failing inner city schools in order to have state- subsidized private education for their children. Perhaps this could be sponsored by the attorneys who are making millions each year off our kids?!?
