Opis

My name is Dr. Pinky Miller and I am a former student of the real bullhorn and baseball bat toting icon from the film Lean on Me, Dr. Joe Louis Clark. After writing my dissertation on the legacy of Dr. Joe Clark I felt sharing the profound experiences that my classmates, teachers, administrators and I had, was not just relevant to the conversation of the education system in America... It is a necessity if we want to effectively reshape the paradigm that has failed so many in the minority communities. This book chronicles the failures and successes of Dr. Clark and the impact his leadership had on his students, and those who worked at Paterson, New Jersey's Eastside High School during his tenure (1982-1989). Why his strategies worked for so many of his students and what is possible for those who want to really change Education in America. I am also in the process of developing a documentary that can accompany this book as a resource for principals, teachers, education boards, administrators, parents and students. I feel the reshaping of the education in America must start first at home. It is the job that can only begin with the parents and student...However; it takes a village to make sure students become successful citizens of this world.
