This week on What’s Going On with Earl Ingram: Dr. Howard Fuller delivers a powerful message—if our children can’t read and write, they can’t succeed. In too many classrooms, kids are being left behind, and without literacy, the future shuts down before it even starts. Dr. Fuller makes it clear: teaching reading and writing isn’t just another subject—it’s the foundation of opportunity, freedom, and equality.

We’ll talk about why literacy must come first in every school, what’s at stake if we fail, and how communities can step up to make sure every child leaves the classroom prepared to thrive.
