In this 1991 interview, former school teacher John Taylor Gatto talks about the difference between "schooling" through public schools and true education. What really matters? Does "Schooling" as we know it today create whole human beings? I hope that you find this interview as inspiring and informative as I did. For more information visit: www.johntaylorgatto.com

When a new president takes office in January 2009, he will have a chance to substantially reshape education policy. The No Child Left Behind Act is currently due for reauthorization by Congress, offering the incoming administration an opportunity to put its stamp on key federal education legislation. State level policy developments, including current state fiscal challenges and the growth of state pre-k programs, provide further education challenges and opportunities.The two parties' presumptive nominees, Republican Sen. John McCain and Democratic Sen. Barack Obama, have offered very different visions for education policy under their potential administrations. Yet these proposals, and the differences between them, have received relatively little press coverage or media attention-even as 83 percent of voters tell pollsters that education is either extremely or very important to their votes for president.On July 24, the New America Foundation will host a discussion of the candidates' education proposals with education experts who helped shape those agendas. Lisa Graham Keegan is former Arizona Superintendent of Public Instruction and education advisor to John McCain. Jon Schnur was Senior Advisor on Education to Vice President Al Gore and Special Assistant to U.S. Secretary of Education Richard W. Riley, and has advised Barack Obama on education since he became a U.S. Senator. Keegan and Schnur will describe the candidates' education agendas, discuss the outlook for education policy in the next administration and congress, and respond to questions from a moderator and the audience.Richard Colvin, Director of the Hechinger Institute on Education and the Media at Columbia University, moderated the discussion.

Rise Against's new album, Appeal To Reason.Lyrics:To the sound of a heartbeat pounding awayTo the rhythm of the awful rusted machinesWe toss and turn but don't sleepEach breath we take makes us thievesLike causes without rebelsJust talk but promise nothing elseWe crawl on our knees for youUnder a sky no longer blueWe sweat all day long for youBut we sow seeds to see us through'Cause sometimes dreams just don't come trueWe wait to reap what we are dueTo the rhythm of a time bomb ticking awayAnd the blare of the sirens combing the streetsChased down like dogs we run fromYour grasp until the sun comes upWe crawl on our knees for youUnder a sky no longer blueWe sweat all day long for youBut we sow seeds to see us through'Cause sometimes dreams just don't come trueLook now at what they've done to youWhite needles buried in the redThe engine roars and then it givesBut never dies'Cause we don't liveWe just surviveOn the scraps that you throw awayI won't crawl on my knees for youI won't believe the lies that hide the truthI won't sweat one more drop for you'Cause we are the rust upon your gearsWe are the insect in your earsWe crawlWe crawlWe crawl... all over youWe sow the seeds to see us throughOur days are precious and so fewWe all reap what we are dueUnder this sky no longer blueWe bring the dawn long over-dueWe crawlWe crawlWe crawl... all over you
