Quick Take

One of the most unlikely focal points of the 2008 presidential election discusses "City Kids, City Schools."

Editorial Review

"William Ayers." It's hard not to hear these words in any cadence except the Alaskan lilt of Sarah Palin isn't it? As the 2008 presidential campaign drew to a close, the frequency of this name drop fell somewhere in between the firey Rev. Jeremiah Wright and the beloved Joe the Plumber.

But Ayers is stopping by Busboys and Poets on Tuesday not to jibber jabber about his controversial past or his relationship (or non-relationship) to our presidential-elect. He's here to talk about his two books, "City Kids, City Schools: More Reports from the Front Row" and "City Kids, City Teachers: Reports from the Front Row," that focus on educational development in city schools. A worthy subject indeed, but we have a feeling most of his audience is going to have a hard time avoiding questions that don't contain another name drop: Barack Obama.
