Please join me this weekend at the Gene Siskel Film Center for the new 4K restoration of THE WAR AT HOME! Director, Glenn Silber, will be there in person! My pal Bill Siegel will be moderating the Friday evening Q & A. I love this film. Here is a piece Bill wrote about it for Documentary magazine. Hope to see you at the Siskel! https://www.documentary.org/…/playback-barry-alexander-brow…
Gramsci on education:
November 26, 2018The history of education shows that every class which has sought to take power has prepared itself for power by an autonomous education. The first step in emancipating oneself from political and social slavery is that of freeing the mind. I put forward this new idea: popular schooling should be placed under the control of the great workers’ unions. The problem of education is the most important class problem.
