Show Notes
Axel Brito chose to use his opportunity as valedictorian of his graduating class to call out (by name) those who are at the root of the rot and corruption within public education for Los Angeles. In front of thousands of people at the infamous Hollywood Bowl, this young man displayed tremendous bravery to call for a change.
In this episode, Axel and Will discuss the education system, charter schools, rebellion, and courage.
