Abstract | Why did our former president and the late progressive U.S. Senator Paul Wellstone support the charter public school approach, while rejecting public funds for private or parochial schools? Why has civil rights legend Rosa Parks been a strong charter supporter? Why has the number of states with some form of charter law grown from one in 1992 to forty-one today, and the number of charter schools from one to more than 3,000? This essay attempts to help answer those questions. It includes two sections. The first offers a brief explanation of the charter idea and shows how it is different from the voucher idea. The second describes some of the experience and research that help define the charter movement, including some that the American Federation of Teachers has attempted to promote in furtherance of its goal of blocking or blunting the movement.
