Building a Learning Culture in America takes an incisive,
no-holds-barred look at how America embraced and cultivated a
culture of learning in the past, how that culture declined in the
sixties and seventies, and what must be done to regain it. From
political gridlock to systemic discrimination, Chavous details the
many ways education today is off track, and cites specific examples
of what Americans might do to reform it. Part memoir and part
manifesto, this is a frank, fascinating, and personal account of
Chavous' experience as a politician working to enact school choice
in Washington, DC, and throughout the United States. During the
course of his political career, he has seen political skirmishes
and party scuffles interfere with the United States' ability to
improve its educational system. These conflicts did not cause the
problem; they were merely a result. The true problem was more
basic: the decline of America's learning culture. This pivotal work
calls for Americans to unite in making the changes needed to
re-establish a learning culture as an inherent piece of the
American national fabric, and tells us how to begin.
