Please join Internet Radio Host Dr. James Avington Miller Jr. as he reports live from the great state of Maine in the third of his reports about “The People’s Story". Joining Dr. Miller this week will be teacher and education activist Emily Kennedy Talmage.
Dr. Miller and Ms. Talmage will have a conversation about President Obama's recent announcement about the "reduction" in testing in our nation's public schools. This so called reduction is just another Trojan Horse and not a victory or a reason to celebrate.
Special attention will be paid to the reforms that are currently pervasive in Maine with Competency/Proficiency Based Education and the Gates takeover.
What is happening in Maine connects with the larger corporate agenda to privatize our schools and monetize our children and directly affects our teachers and their ability to teach.
Please check out Ms. Talmage's blog posts about education in Maine - Save Maine Schools.

This show will stir you to act and convince you that RESISTANCE MATTERS.
What is happening in Maine is a prototype for what will happen in every state if we do not resist and win the war against public education.
The last 10 minutes of the show, Dr. Miller will also be reporting on this week's event on his current road trip for his project – “The People’s Story".
