Whatever it takes

Geoffrey Canada's quest to change Harlem and America
2008
Explores how Geoffrey Canada is attempting to change the lives of poor children in America through his Harlem Children's Zone, a ninety-seven-block lab in Harlem where Canada and his staff test new and controversial ideas about poverty in the United States, including his theory that poor children need everything in their lives, including their schools, neighborhoods, and family practices, changed in order to compete with their middle-class peers.
