Public Education and Nation’s Citizenship Debate at Topeka
In a Topeka address to the State Teachers Association Chancellor Lip Pincott argues for the public school system as the core of American citizenship. He condemns attempts to privatize or foreignize education, urges critical review to improve American schooling, and highlights the school room as the equalizer among social classes. He cites Topeka’s welcome, the city’s support for teachers, and the need for a robust, American system adaptable to changing national life.
