Lewis Black (Assignment 11/19)

Starts with Week long commitment at NBC News to education nation.
Black : you don't have to be a rocket scientist to understand that our schools are broken, which is good because none of us are.
The question is what are we going to do about it.
There are some that think the kids need a challenging curriculum and one on one help.

 NBC a week for education, 51 weeks for incarceration.
LA's Robert F Kennedy Schools $578,000,000
Charter schools limiting number of students in process called "Waiting for superman"
Teach: Tony Danza or Teach Tony Danza!
Among 30 developed countries we ranked 25th in math.
21st in science
in almost every category we have fallen behind except 1.
1st in confidence.
video shows kid on bicycle going up ramp with the intention of landing on the roof of a building but falling short and crashing into the side of the building just below the roof.
Who needs physics, math, geometry.
Just a little more confidence and he would have cleared that roof.
