A thought that occurred to me on yesterday's walk is that we're regressing to what my great grandparents education was. They were illiterate and ignorant. They trusted the system and the status quo.
My Grandparents on the other hand learned not to. They all fought for the rights of their families and for them to not be illiterate. To use libraries. My father taught me to read before I started school.
We need to learn how to do that again and help the next generation to do so as well.
