Slaying Goliath
The Passionate Resistance to Privatization and the Fight to Save America's Public Schools
Book • 2020
In 'Slaying Goliath,' Diane Ravitch argues that the movement to privatize public education, led by what she terms 'Disrupters,' has failed to improve educational outcomes and instead has undermined the teaching profession and public schools.
The book highlights the resistance from teachers, parents, and communities who are fighting to preserve public education as a cornerstone of American democracy.
