Waiting for “SUPERMAN”: How We Can Save America’s Failing Public Schools
Waiting for “SUPERMAN”: How We Can Save America’s Failing Public Schools
The American public education system is in crisis. Millions of students attend “failure factories” that produce more drop-outs than graduates; millions more attend “nice” schools that mask mediocre achievement. The U.S.’s reading and math scores stagnate and even fall behind, while other countries continue to advance. But many are working to reinvent this system. The film Waiting for “Superman,” directed by An Inconvenient Truth’s Davis Guggenheim, chronicles these efforts through th

Tchaikovsky: 1812 Festival Overture; Capriccio Italien; Beethoven: Wellington’s Victory
It’s hard to believe that this, the BEST EVER 1812 Overture was not only recorded in the 1950s, but it still sounds better than any other version. This last fact is a tribute to the remastering expertise of producer Wilma Cozart Fine, and a still greater tribute to her late husband, a recording genius, for leaving her with such fantastic quality original tapes to work with. If you want real cannon, the sound of a zillion bells, and a really sensational brass band, all perfectly blended together

Brown v. Board of Education: A Civil Rights Milestone and Its Troubled Legacy (Pivotal Moments in American History)
2004 marks the fiftieth anniversary of the Supreme Court’s unanimous decision to end segregation in public schools. Many people were elated when Supreme Court Chief Justice Earl Warren delivered Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka in May 1954, the ruling that struck down state-sponsored racial segregation in America’s public schools. Thurgood Marshall, chief attorney for the black families that launched the litigation, exclaimed later, “I was so happy, I was numb.” The novelist Ralph Ellison w
