In this edition of Profiles in Courage, we conclude our 4 part series on education inequality with an interview with Dr. Herrera-Evans of The Language Institute in Modesto, CA.  If you haven't already, I would encourage you to read or listen to the previous installments: Part 1, Part 2, and Part 3.
