I love my mom. She’s the best version of herself right now in her early 70s. But she didn’t provide any political, historical, or cultural education to let me know who I am and what the real world actually is. Public school system didn’t do that either. I don’t blame my mom. She didn’t get that education from anyone or any institution either. And the ruling class only wants us educated enough to labor for an employer or maybe to become an employer one day yourself. No self or political education worth a damn for a working class kid was coming from them. In short, I love my mom. I hate systematic denial of real transformative education that equips you to democratically decide everyday life in all realms for you, yours, and the neighbors here and abroad whom you share the world with. My mom is dope. Thanks for indulging me here. Stay high!
