If knowledge is power, then understanding what is going on at LAUSD and in our public schools throughout the U.S. is the first step to real empowerment of those who seek to do something more than saying "Ya Basta".

To start out with, folks need to understand some of the basic and regrettable principles upon which the public education system is still based in 2013:

2. If you educate the Latino in the manner that other immigrants coming to this country were educated over the previous two centuries, you will lose your cheap labor source and white people will have to take care of their own children and mow their own lawns.

3. If you want to sabotage the innate intelligence of Latinos whose ancestors built a civilization that lasted four times longer than the Roman Empire, understood astronomy, and had the zero for use in advanced math you must, at a very early age, make sure that students of color are inoculated with self-doubt from the moment they enter school.  This assures they will never reach their potential.
