Rhee announces on today's episode of the Oprah Winfrey Show that she is launching an organization called Students First, an interest group/political lobby that will advocate her brand of education reform. In an exclusive interview with Fast Company, she says Students First reflects some of the lessons she learned in D.C. "If you look at how things get done in this country, it's influence and how much you can exert influence," she says. "That's how things happen, even in education. So you have textbook manufacturers, you have the teachers' unions, you even have food-service people. The problem is that there is no organized interest group solely for kids. Because you don't have that, policy-making is happening in a lopsided way. What we need to do is to create a positive, balancing force for change for kids that has a lot of clout and a lot of influence."
By influence, Rhee clearly means money: Her goal is to raise $1 billion for Students First. She also hopes to recruit, within the next year, 1 million people from all walks of life to join the organization and build momentum to change public education across America....
