On Fareed Zakaria GPS Today

View this email in your browser Insights, analysis and must reads from CNN's Fareed Zakaria and the Global Public Square team, compiled by Global Briefing editor Jason Miks. May 20, 2018 On Today's Show On GPS at 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. ET on CNN: First, Fareed offers his Take on teaching in America – what's behind the recent strikes, the teacher shortages, and how those entering the profession are too often underappreciated and undercompensated.   "Yes, education is a very complicated subject. Simply spending more money does not guarantee results (although there are studies that indicate a significant correlation between teacher pay and student achievement). The education bureaucracy is rigid and often corrupt," Fareed says. "But all this masks the central problem: Over the last 30 years, as part of the assault on government, bureaucrats and the public sector in general, being a teacher in America has become a thankless job. And yet, teaching is the one profession that makes all other professions possible."   Then: Fareed is joined by Tom Friedman, a New York Times columnist and the author of "Thank You for Being Late: An Optimist's Guide to Thriving in the Age of Acceleration," and Hanan Ashrawi, a longtime Palestinian activist and official, to discuss the US decision to move its embassy to Jerusalem.   Also on the show: Last year, Harvard constitutional law scholar Laurence Tribe wrote an opinion piece in the Washington Post titled "Trump must be impeached. Here's why." Tribe has spent much of the year since doing a deep dive on impeachment with one of his former students, Joshua Matz. What does he think now? Fareed is joined by Tribe and Matz to discuss the issue. Watch Laurence Tribe discuss the case against impeachment   Plus: Fareed is joined by venture capitalist John Doerr – an early investor in companies like Amazon and Google. They discuss Doerr's new book "Measure What Matters" -- and the serious questions Silicon Valley is facing today.   Take This Week's GPS Challenge How many people live in Tokyo?
