This video covers an interview on CNN's AC360 with the filmmakers of the new film "Waiting For Superman" by popular southern principal Steve Perry. They direrctors explain what motivated them to make the film and the things they discovered that they had never expected from it. Also covers the question of whether parents in poverty-stricken areas care. They believe the whole country should look at what we've dpne to these chldren in restricting their right to free choice of schools. Perry presents an interesting topic that gets me inventing in my mind about if principals/administration were allowed to choose the teachers that taught at their school. In short these people showed the world what nobody else was bold enough to show, which is what WE were doing wrong.
