The Burt Cohen Show - Restoring Opportunity: The Challenge for American Education - 02/07/14

Educator Richard Murnane is co-author of Restoring Opportunity: The Crisis of Inequality and the Challenge for American Education. While there is, of course, no easy "silver bullet," Murnane explains in this discussion that a steady and patient focus on realistic means of addressing the problem can yield positive results, and renew the American dream.
