Reviews
"Jesse Hagopian brought a rare moment of truth to the corporate-dominated Education Nation show when he spoke on behalf of his colleagues at Garfield High in Seattle. He instantly became the voice and face of the movement to stop pointless and punitive high-stakes testing."
-Diane Ravitch, former U.S. Assistant Secretary of Education, education historian, and bestselling author "Jesse Hagopian is doing more than teaching history. He is answering history's call."
-John Young, writer and regular contributor to the Austin Statesman news "Jesse brings parents, students, and teachers together for the greater good. He is a tireless advocate for his students and his coworkers. His voice is for social justice."
-Bob George, Save Our Schools National Director "Jesse Hagopian helps students learn from history and then apply those lessons to their lives today."
-Deborah Menkart, Executive Director of Teaching for Change
