About this listen
This week, Mike Petrilli flies solo to discuss New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani’s proposal to eliminate gifted education in the early grades—and how progressives can be persuaded to champion advanced learning opportunities for all students.
Then, on the Research Minute, Adam Tyner reviews a new study on how parental education shapes excellence gaps among students.
