Bill Taylor

It’s with sadness that I note the passing of civil rights advocate and attorney Bill Taylor.

There are people who fail to change with the times and consequently become irrelevant.  And there are people who change too much with the times and are unreliable.  Education has plenty of both.  Bill was neither.

American children, especially those who most need the protection of civil rights laws and a civil rights establishment willing to challenge the educational establishment on their behalf, are better for Bill’s time and work here.
