The response was passionate, and the meeting launched a movement.This bookemerging directly from that effortreports on what has happened since and calls for a new scale of organizing, legal initiatives, and public definitions of what a quality education is. Essays include Robert Mosess historically rooted call for citizens, especially young people, to make the demand for quality education Ernesto Cortss view from decades of work organizing Latino communities in Texas Charles Paynes interview with students from the Baltimore Algebra Project, who organized to make historic demands on their district Legal scholar Imani Perrys nuanced analysis of the prospects of making a case for quality education as a right guaranteed by the Constitution Perspectives from scholars Lisa Delpit and Joan T. Wynne, and by teachers Alicia Caroll and Kim Parker, who provide examples of what quality education is, describing its goal, and how to guide practice in the meantime
