These pieces build on the work of Section E of Educational Courage, “Not My Voice Alone: Organizing to Reclaim Public Education.” They provide inspiring examples of the ways in which organized resistance can be powerful in challenging corporate-driven educational policies. The pieces here make clear the potential of the coordinated efforts of many people to work together, garnering strength in numbers and public attention, to turn the tide of the damaging policies that threaten public education.
