Geoffrey Canada and Capella University livestream panel on education reform

One person can make a difference. Just ask Geoffrey Canada, an education reform advocate whose groundbreaking work in Harlem schools set a precedent across the United States. It’s even inspired U.S. President Barack Obama to apply his model to cities across America.

On December 28 at 3:00pm PT, Geoffrey Canada will deliver a keynote speech about education reform, hosted by Capella University and streamed live on YouTube. The keynote presentation will be followed by a panel discussion on critical issues with leaders in the field of education reform, including Dr. Steve Perry and Dr. Christy Hovanetz. The panel will also answer questions submitted via YouTube here.

In the meantime, here’s some of Canada’s past work:



So check out the live event at 3:00pm PT on December 28 on Capella University's Inspire Ideas YouTube Channel, and we hope you enjoy.

I love Geoffrey speach I believe we've all been through feeling all alone not knowing if we would make it through our child hood due to the place we grew up or the lack of tlc from our own parents I'm grown now and I made sure my kids knew what a parents love was and if I was financially able I'd get a big old house on some land some where and take in Foster kids and not just for the money like most do but to give them a Chance to feel truly loved and cared for isn't that all any kid dreams of I know I did and doesn't every kid deserve that

That's one benefit of the internet: it allows the spirit of advocacy to spread faster. One such avenue for furthering an advocacy is video streaming. Through this, advocates can call on people to donate or volunteer for the benefit of a group of people or a person.
