The purpose of education, finally, is to create in a person the ability to look at the world for himself, to make his own decisions, to say to himself this is black or this is white, to decide for himself whether there is a God in heaven or not. To ask questions of the universe, and then learn to live with those questions, is the way he achieves his own identity.” 2008019 https://padlet.com/teachingforblacklives/yfrns1nxaq8moh36/wish/2606379240 2023-05-26 16:45:15 UTC https://padlet.com/teachingforblacklives/yfrns1nxaq8moh36/wish/2606379240
