Shame Mr. Izard didn't address why the NAACP last year called for a moratorium on the expansion of charters. (source: http://www.naacp.org/latest/statement-regarding-naacps-resolution-moratorium-charter-schools/). I'm sure it's because from his well-funded perch at the Independence Institute, Mr. Izard has a much better view of how racial politics plays out in charter-vs-public schools debate than do the thin-skinned snowflakes in charge of the NAACP.
