...Chicago's South Side. As urban school systems have crumbled in recent years, teachers such as she have been increasingly berated. They have been charged from afar with destroying the minds of ghetto children, with arrogance and racism in the classroom, with a cynical desire merely to extract a paycheck from their job until they can transfer to a "better" school.
