NEA's Steve Grant Talks Advocacy, Teachers

Between New York’s new schools chancellor Cathie Black, a Colbert Report appearance by former D.C. schools chancellor Michelle Rhee, and the film Waiting for Superman, public school education is a hot topic.

The NEA is an advocacy group for educators, whose stated mission is to “fulfill the promise of public education to prepare every student to succeed in a diverse and interdependent world.”
