On Thursday, September 29, at 8:30 PM ET Education Post is hosting a Facebook Q&A on Why the NAACP Is Wrong to Propose a Moratorium on Charter Schools. With blogger Citizen Stewart, we'll have an honest conversation about what Black families need and want from our public schools. I know some of you are thinking—that sounds awesome!
