| Summary |
An expose of the power struggle inside the Texas State Board of Education, the government body that determines what students learn in Texas public schools, and, due to the buying power of their system, often the entire country. The film showcases how public education has become the latest battleground in a new wave of cultural, religious, and ideological clashes, with Texas education board members advancing agendas of Creationism and other religious issues in public schools. |
