education

I like focusing on Education and learning as it involves the historic times we inhabit. Fact: even in an age of multi-billion dollar cuts to public education; in an age when pitiable, inferior "Charter Schools," proliferate in strip malls across the subtropical Sun Belt; (Some misguided Floridians are actually opening charter schools in former auto dealerships down there).... Yes, even in this day and age.... learning is something that's valued Universally. "Universally" meaning Valued by Blacks, by Whites by Hispanics, by Native Americans, by Asian-Americans ALIKE. By people across the contemporary socio-economic spectrum. Examples abound, even in our over-bloated and offensive popular entertainment environment. A movie like the one I'll post here, filled with positively grotesque representations of mindless, highly glorified VIOLENCE, nonetheless contains at least two or three notable scenes wherein adults actually take some time off from murderous gunplay. The "grown-ups" do so, between fusillades, to try and enlighten the up-and-comers, the Children of the World, who so desperately CRAVE enlightenment, no? NOTE delivery of the computers, a real service to the community.... Note the young girl, studying on the (household?) computer at about 1:44-45, as the two main characters enter the "Mexican Gang" household. Education as a Universal value, true to form! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uaxi36gv77s
