IMPORTANT: The Network for Public Education will hold a major event on October 11 in New York City called "Public Education Nation." This is not to be confused with NBC's annual Gates-sponsored "Education Nation." Nope, this will be a low-budget, high-interest opportunity to meet education activists who are fighting corporate education "reform" and working for better public schools. The event will be live-streamed and can be viewed from anywhere. Admission is free. PUBLIC Education Nation will deliver the conversation the country has been waiting for. Rather than featuring billionaires and pop singers, this event will be built around intense conversations featuring leading educators, parents, students and community activists. We have waited too long for that seat at someone else's table. This time, the tables are turned, and we are the ones setting THE AGENDA.
