This program addresses teachers efforts to level the
educational and social playing fields for their students by examining public school reform
and its relationship to social change. Educators who taught on the western frontier in the
late 19th century and in the South during desegregation are spotlighted, along with
contemporary instructors working with Native Americans in New Mexico and inner-city youth
in New York. Visionaries including Joseph Abeyta, of the Santa Fe Indian School; Ann Cook,
of Urban Academy; and retired North Carolina school principal Kat Crosby consider cultural
identity, teaching for diversity, performance-based assessment, and other topics. (54
minutes, color)
