Description:

Busboys and Poets has always been a place for artists, activists, and writers of the community to gather and break bread. And while we may be physically distant right now, we can still stay connected and break bread together.

Join us on Zoom for Busboys and Friends: A Virtual Dinner Party held every Friday night at 6 pm. Hosted by CEO and Founder, Andy Shallal with a special dinner guest each week.

Order your favorite meal and beverage from Busboys and Poets, set your table, and tune in for a special dinner with some of the most influential leaders of our time.

This week's very special dinner guest is Professor and Historian of Education, Diane Ravitch!

Diane Ravitch is a Research Professor of Education at New York University and a historian of education. She is the Founder and President of the Network for Public Education (NPE).

Diane Ravitch’s Blog is dianeravitch.net and has received more than 36 million hits. She is the author of numerous books, including Slaying Goliath: The Passionate Resistance to Privatization and the Fight to Save America's Public Schools (2020) and The Wisdom and Wit of Diane Ravitch (2019).
