Education Is Such A Noble

I Have Always Been Taught To Be Proud Of Being Latina, Proud Of Being Mexican, And I Was. I Was Probably More Proud Of Being A "label" Than Of Being A Human Being, That's The Way Most Of Us Were Taught.

Fights Don't Solve Matters, They Just Make Things Worse. (diary 19)

I Grew Up In A Very Progressive Family And With A Great Educational System, And I Asked Myself, 'why Doesn't Everybody Have These Opportunities For A Good Education? So Why Not Give Back To These Kids Who Didn't Grow Up With The Same Privileges I Had?

I Believe That Education Is The Greatest Equalizer; Thus, I Will Continue To Fight To Equalize The Playing Field In An Educational Atmosphere That Is Not Always Level!

It Doesn't Take A Rocket Scientist To Figure Out That If You Tell Kids They're Stupid--directly Or Indirectly--sooner Or Later They Start To Believe It.
