I’m really honored that the article I wrote, School Wars<\/a><\/span>, is the cover story <\/span>for the September\/October issue of Good Magazine<\/span>. \u00a0(PDF here<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While they edited out a good number of my jokes and a bunch of stuff about Eli Broad, I am thrilled to have been asked to write such a large and unconventional article for a lifestyle magazine. After ten years of writing for trade magazines and the web, I think this makes me an actual journalist! (My dues is paid up too)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While you can certainly read the article online here<\/a>, I suggest you find a copy of Good at a local newsstand, bookstore or Whole Foods so you can see the provocative art they used to enhance my article. Plus, you can have me autograph the issue the next time you see me \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s also not such a bad idea to buy the issue in order to send the message that you wish to read thoughtful pieces about education in the mainstream media. It takes a pretty gutsy magazine to pay me to question the motives of Bill Gates and Eli Broad.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
