It starts at birth and follows children to college. It meshes those services into an interlocking web, and then it drops that web over an entire neighborhood. At a moment when each new attempt to solve the problem of poverty seems to fall apart, one after the next, what is going on in central Harlem is one of the biggest social experiments of our time. The programs all seem carefully planned and well run, but none of them, on their own, are particularly revolutionary. It is only when they are considered together, as a network, that they seem so new. The Harlem Children's Zone is to education as TiVo is to television. | |||
