This week's episode might be subtitled "Still Waiting for Superman" - or "Lex Luthor, Big Man On Campus." MOMocrats Cynthia Liu and Donna Schwartz Mills talk extensively with special guest Leonie Haimson, longtime New York City education activist and organizer of grassroots group Parents Across America. Talk was of schools (in New York and elsewhere), class sizes, Cathie Black, Michelle Rhee, budget cuts and why Bill Gates and Michael Bloomberg DON'T have all the answers.
