About this audiobook

Exhausted teachers scrape by on low pay while kids graduate blind to climate crises and algorithms, exposing the American school system's 100 fractures. The 100 Cracks Project maps them season by season—not for reform, but re-architecture—with human stories, failures, and playbooks for governors and parents. It invites you to spot those same cracks in your community's education gravity.
