Abstract
The authors take on the district vs. charter school question. The real question, they say, ought to be whether we favor good schools for all kids. Are we ready to talk about why it’s acceptable to provide a world class public education to kids in well-funded suburban schools while city kids work to bootstrap into the American Dream in Third World conditions with far fewer resources than their suburban peers? A better conversation would untangle our tolerance for this inequality and generate solutions that level the playing field.
