The 1619 Project Strikes Again—This Time, It’s Education

Dom examines Nikole Hannah-Jones’s account of her daughter’s experience in a struggling New York City public school, contrasts PS 307 with nearby Community Roots Charter School, and argues that school choice—not more spending—is the lesson. He also looks at New York’s move away from Regents exams and why Mississippi may need a “Moonshot” after its early literacy gains.
