Meet the Author
Betsy DeVos is a leader, innovator, accomplished business leader, and champion for freedom. Having served as the 11th U.S. Secretary of Education from 2017-2021, she delivered historic reforms to improve education and ensure civil rights are protected. For more than three decades she’s led the fight for policies that allow students and their parents the freedom to choose the best educational option for them. Betsy is the former chair of the American Federation for Children, The Philanthropy Roundtable, and the Michigan Republican Party, and has served on numerous boards, including the Kennedy Center and the American Enterprise Institute.
From the Introduction
Americans have never been as receptive to fundamental change in our education system as they are today. But decades-long experience in the education freedom trenches has taught me that this new receptivity must translate into political will—bipartisan political will. That means Democrats have to rethink their role as the political arm of the school union bosses. And many Republicans have to reevaluate their reluctance to act boldly to advance school choice.
The time has come for a truly new approach. We tried throwing truckloads of money at schools. That didn’t make them open any sooner during the pandemic. We tried banning poisonous ideologies like critical race theory, but that hasn’t—and won’t—drive the tendency to indoctrinate our children from our public schools.
The answer is education freedom.

Written for youth advocates
I think she is a good writer because she gives good descriptions. I would have like her to share a bit about the number of volunteer hours she spent mentoring at-risk youth. My sister used to work at a small bookstore Betsy went to and she bought the kids a lot of books. On one occasion she bought so many that the cash register *broke. I would recommend this book for youth advocates. I think there should be a Spanish edition Betsy's book so people from the Hispanic community have something to read on their morning coffee break.Also, her husband is a good writer too. I included a photo of his book. I know he wrote it a long time ago, but I never knew who Herbert Kahn was until I read it. Where are today's Herbert Kahn's???Dave Baker, School Accounts, Diversity Initiatives, Baker Book House*It's possible that my sister pushed the wrong button.
