Event Description

The Inconvenient Truth Behind Waiting for Superman

Friday, September 16, 2011 at 5:00 pm

Room 1010, University Hall, Montclair State University

 

"The Inconvenient Truth Behind Waiting for Superman," is a documentary by the NYC-based Grassroots Education Movement (GEM).  The film challenges the claims made in the popular 2010 documentary, "Waiting for Superman," addressing topics such as privatization, testing, unions, teacher-blaming, and the intersection of education and poverty.  

A lively discussion will follow.  

The screening is hosted by the New Jersey Teacher Action Group (NJTAG).  For more information, email kate_strom@yahoo.com or visit www.facebook/NJTAG.

No registration is needed. Parking is available in the Red Hawk Deck for $3.75.
