Another manifesto…starring me, again, of course

OK. This is getting downright odd. I posted a couple of days ago about the Broader/Bolder project/movement and how the core ideas in that manifesto overlapped with many of the statements I made in my “This I Believe” post a while back. I even jokingly accused them of ripping me off.

Well, today we got another “manifesto” from a group led by NYC Schools Chancellor Joel Klein and Reverend Al Sharpton. The Education Equality Project does not have as many initial signatories as the Bigger/Bolder folks, but those that did sign on originally are HEAVY hitters. I do like what I read in their Statement of Principles, but my point today is not to reflect on those. I only point you to this additional manifesto to point out #4 in their Statement of Principles. With emphasis added, it says:

We must have an honest and forthright conversation about the root causes of this national failure. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. That is the trap we must avoid or risk losing another generation of our children.

So, the Bigger/Bolder group stole my ideas. The Education Equality Project stole the TITLE AND FOUNDATION OF MY WHOLE BLOG (see my header)!!!

Anyone know a good lawyer?  (-;
