Ed Reform Flowchart
A very nifty flowchart from our friends at the Seattle Education blog (Sue Peters and Dora Taylor) showing the "lines of influence" both nationally and locally. They created this awhile back and admit it needs updating like the line between Gates and the Alliance, that Goodloe-Johnson is gone, and there are even more connections than ever in 2013.

The doc had quite a few ooohs and aahs from WEA peeps, and, of course, since it had the taint of: 1. being effective, 2. NOT worshipping at the alter of Gate$-ILL-Vain-IA, 3. REAL grassroots work -------- I have NEVER seen any followup from the union which takes my money to sell me out!
