New York Opt-Out surging. From Mark Naison today: New Yorks Test Refusers, who will certainly number 20,000 by the end of today, are setting a powerful example of courage, and resistance, to the entire nation. Someday, these students and their families, who have sometimes faced threats and harassment from administrators and school personnel, will be honored for taking tangible action when something went terrible wrong with our nations education policy. If you have an chance, please show your support for this great movement and the people involved in it, and encourage other to follow their example. We are now, according to Diane Ravitch, the most over tested nation in the world and this will not change without this remarkable form of Civil Disobedience which follows much more in the tradition of the Civil Rights movement than the Education Reform policies which have claimed that mantle.
