This week on Behind The Lens, the academic panorama in New Orleans has some advocates touting the all-charter system as a mannequin for the nation. However the chief of an area non-profit Black Training for New Orleans, or BE NOLA, writes in an op-ed, that the story is way more difficult.

Particular visitor Adrinda Kelly, the founding Govt Director of Black Training for New Orleans (BE NOLA), whose mission is to assist Black educators and Black-led faculties, sits down with Behind The Lens host Carolyne Heldman.

Kelly chronicles the historical past of the rise of constitution faculties in New Orleans. The groundwork for such a change was laid nicely earlier than Hurricane Katrina hit the town, thought, she argues, the storm accelerated the transition.
