Erica,

I want to thank you for your beautiful articulation of the sad truth that makes mass education painful for so many people.

Unfortunately, school very effectively destroys people's ability to act on the reality you tried show to your classmates and community, but I am appreciative nonetheless because it is better to give the truth a voice, even if it falls on deaf ears. You exposed yourself and embraced vulnerability, and that is the most powerful thing a human being can do.

If you have any pedagogical theories, please share them with the world. I am all ears.

Thank you.
