New Drax mini-machinima


Check out Draxtor’s latest new mini-machinima named No on Measure on G looking at public education and the global issue of replacing human interaction with more testing. The video mentions teachers, ipads and kids. 😀

[This is about a local ballot measure in CA however it is part of the global issue of defunding public education and replacing human interaction with more testing!]

Another great video and i’m excited to see what will come next in the Drax video series.  Are you a fan ?
