I do not believe that Ms. Lanier personally supports the movie but is willing to have the Taskforce be a co-sponsor.

However, the fact that it addresses "families of Metro Schools" suggests to me that it was a global, comprehensive email blast. According to the thread, someone named "M K" forwarded it to the Jones Paideia PTO gmail account. The person in charge of that account appears to have forwarded it to around 200 people (I assume they are all members of the Jones mailing list). I was one of the approximately 200 at the end of the thread.S-townMikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05948307051485318061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10635442.post-19913670387442132022012-09-20T10:26:42.068-05:002012-09-20T10:26:42.068-05:00The views and promotional email by Ms Lanier were ...The views and promotional email by Ms Lanier were not endorsed, approved, or even discused by PAC as a body or by the existing PAC leadership team. I personally did not receive the email in question, so I am unsure how widely it was distributed. We are having the first PAC meeting tonight at 6pm at the Martin Center.
