Education Injustice For One Is Injustice For All
The arrest and felony conviction of Kelley Williams-Bolar for falsifying records to give her daughters a chance at a better education says so much about education inequity in America and its virulent affect on poor people. Some leading voices in journalism and politics have spoken out against the injustice visited upon Williams-Bolar. But we hope to hear a hue and cry – that is, sustained outrage that gives birth to reforms that create access to quality, safe education for all Americans.
