Here's politics, Louisiana-style.
I can't read the whole article because I feel anger well up. But basically: a New Orleans school board member, who got a corruption task force going, herself accepted $100,000 bribe from William Jefferson's brother (Bill Jefferson is our Congressman who finally got indicted for bribery for dealings with Nigeria, etc. - they found $90,0000 in his freezer) TO PUSH FOR AN ALGEBRA PROGRAM.
Yes, you heard me. There's so much money to be made in education nowadays that $100K can be tossed around for a math program sponsorship.
Yup. Education leaders: always looking out for kids' best interests.
