Through an intergenerational exchange with her former colleague and fellow educator Emily Gasoi, the coauthors share their experiences working in democratically governed schools and analyze the last several decades of education reform. Reflecting on the trajectory of education and social policies that are leading our country further from rule "of, for, and by the people," the authors apply their extensive knowledge and years of research to address the question of how public education must change in order to counter the erosion of democratic spirit and practice in schools and in the nation as a whole"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references. 650 0 $a Public schools $z United States. 650 0 $a Education $x Aims and objectives $z United States. 650 0 $a Democracy $x Study and teaching $z United States. 650 0 $a Democracy and education $z United States. 650 0 $a Education and state $z United States. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Meier, Deborah, author. $t These schools belong to you and me $d Boston : Beacon Press, 2017 $z 9780807024744 700 1 $a Gasoi, Emily, $e author. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20200806023607.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=247D5322D98A11E78F813B5397128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
