After years of underfunding and privatization efforts, Texas public schools have been undermined. This film exposes the forces working to dismantle the public school system and who profits, told through the people on the ground: teachers, parents, students, principals, superintendents, and community members. Now is the time to see it.
With a new governor taking office, Texas has a chance to rebuild its public education system. Join us to learn what has been stripped from our schools and how we can build it back, and to start planning together.
