Killing Ed
Adam is going to see a special screening of the documentary Killing Ed. Directed by Mark Hall, Killing Ed explores the Turkish based Gülen movement and it’s infiltration into Texas charter schools.
IMDB Plot summary:
KILLING ED is an exposé about the corruption, politics and anti-democratic efforts to privatize U.S. public schools. The documentary investigates the worst case scenario: a rapidly expanding, taxpayer-funded, Texas-based charter school network – America’s largest – operated by a global Islamic organization known as the Gülen Movement.
The Atlantic has a great article on this phenomenon.
