Best of the Dropout Nation Podcast: Transform Education to Bend the Arc of History
On this Martin Luther King Day rebroadcast of the Dropout Nation Podcast, RiShawn Biddle takes a look at the progress of American history from 1890 to today, and explains why overhauling public education is critical to keeping it going. In an increasingly global and knowledge-based economy and society, high-quality education is critical to sustaining the nation’s place as the superpower and help all children emerge from poverty into the middle class.
