“The minority, the ruling class at present, has the schools and press, usually the Church as well, under its thumb. This enables it to organize and sway the emotions of the masses, and make its tool of them.”
Albert Einstein
“True terror is to wake up one morning and discover that your high school class is running the country.”
Kurt Vonnegut
“He has the middle class characteristics that might have appeal outside of Denver. He's not a member of a minority group. He has a background in business, and he's a fresh face.”
Bob Loevy
“Most people fail in life because they major in minor things.”
Anthony Robbins
“Winner is a prime example of the national school-to-prison trend. Minority students are being pushed out of the classroom and into jail cells at alarming rates and for very minor wrongdoings.”
Catherine Kim
“There's one thing you can't learn in a segregated school as a minority. You can't learn to operate in an integrated society. The same is true for whites who grow up attending all white schools. When they get around people of other races, they are not comfortable, and they are not really effective.”
Gary Orfield
“For years the urban poor, mainly minorities, have been the victims of a failed school system. Pumping billions of dollars into that same system has not and will not fix the problem. What will is giving those parents real choice, the opportunity to send their child to a school that will actually educate their child.”
