There is pushback against the movement to treat public institutions and the precious people in them like factories. And when the impacted public is treated as an obstacle and not a partner to urban reform, it gives the whole effort colonial and paternalistic smell.

Bye bye Rhee?

Cool Sites!
A few great websites I just discovered:
- Books that Heal Kids: book reviews for books about the good stuff
- Storybird: an AMAZING site that helps with story-making. You can select artwork and author a story yourself. Great for kids who struggle with writing, and awesome artwork!
