Geoffrey Canada on Oprah

 

 

Geoffrey Canada of the Harlem Children's Zone was on the Oprah last week and was, as usual, a passionate spokesman for poor children.  I've posted the segment here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kwfldsWYjGs and here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXfz2K05F1A.  For more on Canada, here's a link to a lengthy 2004 NYT Magazine article about him: www.hcz.org/media/nytimes_062004.pdf.  I also enjoyed his two books, esp. Fist Stick Knife Gun (www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0807004235/tilsoncapitalpar).
