From Struggling to Read to Teaching Hundreds [PODCAST]

No two children are alike. So why should every child be expected to succeed in the same education system?

On this episode of Freedom Rising, Andrew Lewis sits down with Reverend Joshua Robertson, founder of Black Pastors United for Education, and Rachel Langan, senior education policy analyst at the Commonwealth Foundation, to explore why educational freedom matters.

Reverend Robertson shares his remarkable journey from struggling to read as a young adult to building learning centers that help students succeed. Langan explains how her family’s experience during COVID-19 school closures changed her perspective on education and why Pennsylvania needs more options for students and parents.

From school choice and student achievement to education funding reform, this conversation makes the case for putting children first and giving every family the freedom to find the right educational fit.
