 \nDennis Bernstein, KPFA Flashpoints producer and host, is internationally 
 known for decades of path-breaking investigative reporting. He was chosen 
 by Pulse Media as one of “20 Top Global Media Figures of 2009.”  
 \n\n'Special Ed: Voices from a Hidden Classroom' draws on his years as a 
 New York public school teacher. Bernstein is a poet with a teacher’s 
 heart, and a teacher with a poet’s voice. His poetry has been published 
 in the New York Quarterly, Chimaera, the Texas Observer, the Progressive, 
 and ZYZZYVA.\n \n”[Dennis’] fearless pursuit of the truth about what is 
 happening in our rapidly transforming world did not prepare me for the 
 beauty, depth, not-one-word-mislaid perception of this amazing book. Each 
 word, each line, each thought has a weight, a texture, a surprise all its 
 own.”\n    —Alice Walker, Pulitzer Prize-winning poet, author of The 
 Color Purple\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2012/05/22/18713928.php
