KILLING ED is an exposé about the corruption, politics and anti-democratic efforts to privatize U.S. public schools. The documentary investigates the worst case scenario: a rapidly expanding, taxpayer-funded, Texas-based charter school network - America's largest - operated by a global Islamic organization known as the Gülen Movement.

Killing Ed Audience Reviews

Exoticalot People are voting emotionally.
ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
Portia Hilton Blistering performances.
shide_85 Recommended! Democracy and a good society or informal interest group(s) controlling the agenda. Pick one.This is one of those documentaries that gives you a look behind the veil of what is supposed to be democracy, letting you see what the large informal interest group(s) are up to for YOUR (sarcasm) best. If this doesn't win a prestigeous price (asuming its claims are accurate) something is wrong with the world. It clearly illustrates that when it comes between maintaining the plutocracy (rich for rich) it goes ahead of religions for those who claim it doesn't/wouldn't.The main idea is to give better insight into USA ties to Fethullah Gülen and expose ties into yet another overthrowing of democracy. The presented intention before viewing this was (as far as i could tell) about privatisation of property owned by the people and selling out public schools, it does mention Gülen but more as an anecdote. What is revealed is state agencies setting thousands of children's lives second in granting Gülen space to collect funds through missmanaged schools.Pro's • Fresh • Gives what i perceive to be new information that quells any doubts about the Coup d'état in Turkey (if correct). • Has a contemporary (the irony of calling it contemporary in the context of USA foreign policy does not elude me) international impact.Con's • Could have better documented at parts (showing the addresses on the buildings/roads as one example) • Not linking the Department of Foreign Affairs or the CIA to it. End notes: Neo-imperialistically speaking the Coup d'état in Turkey most likely were to put EU's traderoutes in a worse position (paraphrased: "destined" to fail) after TTiP (and it's fascistic circumvention of accepted practises and laws became public) fell through. Turkey is the key to the middle east and putting Erdogan on odds with EU would strengthen USA relative to EU.
