On Education 

Americans believe in education. Education allows you to make something of yourself. Education plays a special role in that it simultaneously provides a way out and a way in. But a way out of what? And a way into what? That’s not always clear. Three characters with different skills and outlooks explore the idea of education, questioning what true education is, challenging common conceptions and putting forward rich definitions of education and what it ideally would be.
