 A sign on Lincoln Boulevard in Venice Beach. This is our time, and a reminder from two inspirational leaders (Malala and Nelson Mandela) is powerful - even when delivered in a homegrown, vernacular medium!

    Let's hope we keep it.

    Charter schools, "Public-Private Partnerships", etc. are all ways TPTB are attempting to privatize the profits and socialize the costs, in education as in everything else.

    Inspiring words in an inspiring place. It's the one thing that no one can ever take away from us.

    Thanks for the timely reminder: what a great way to celebrate this week's theme!

    I like the message, However it's interesting to see that the inspirational people come from different continents and not our own.
