Kevin's OP-ED: Educated black lives also matter
blackenterprise.com
"A critical issue facing America concerns how we best prepare our future generations for the world of tomorrow while mired in this current, combative political environment. The education of our children represents a big part of the answer to that question. The best way to get our kids educated is to think expansively and not constrictively. That is why I speak more and more about building a learning culture in our community. Somehow, we must motivate kids to want to learn as opposed to telling them they need an education. When kids are fired up about learning, there will be less focus on replacing or saving our education system. Great schools will grow from the public demand for superior education options.
The current debate over the utility of charter schools is good for the black community. It also gives us an opportunity. The tension serves to excite what’s possible in education for our children. We must, however, rise above the increasingly toxic, knee-jerk politics of education. After all, educated black lives also matter."
