These attacks are outrageous. Michelle Fine is an in incredibly courageous scholar with some of the sharpest critique and most brilliant analysis on educational policy that exist in the academy today.

This isn't just an attack on Dr. Fine, it is an attack on freedom of speech and academia.

I met Dr. Fine at a conference at UPenn years ago and was impressed the creativity, drive and brilliance in her praxis. Shame on anyone who takes advantage of our transparency laws to attack the personal life of such a wonderful thinker, educator and advocate.

This is how ownership by private interests corrupts academia as well as society more widely. Free thought is now bought and sold according to the investments (in every sense) of the corporate communities.

Professor fine is an internationally known researcher and educator who has been at the forefront of progressive research and pedagogy for many years. She has made a major contribution to her field, and the recent developments are extremely disturbing, damaging the reputation of the US education system.

In my estimation, Prof. Michelle Fine is one of the strongest voices of social solidarity in the current academic firmament and a much respected scholar to boot. She has been an inspiration through her work over the years. It is people like her who take us forward in education not the commercial leeches that sponsor testing regimes.

Michelle Fine stands for justice in education, and I stand with Michelle - one of the most brilliant, creative, and generous people from whom I have had the privilege to learn.

It is utterly outrageous that a good person trying to improve education should be subjected to personal attacks like this. If this can happen to Michelle Fine, nobody is safe.

I have had the pleasure of working with Michelle Fine for close to 30 years. Not only is she exceptionally bright, more importantly, she is a person of supreme integrity.
