“As a
teacher it is invariably the fact that my primary challenge is, year after
year, to convince our children that they know something we need to know, and
that their own feelings are important, at least as important as those adult
values they must struggle against and, somehow, survive, if they will ever be
certified as legitimate human beings.” ~June
Jordan, “Old Stories, New Lives”
