Speech About EducationA Story by GZEducation. The word used now days to imply standards and classifications. Scores and tests used to label who we are - transforming individuals into numbers. Numbers into profits. Students and parents alluded that good grades will bring a good future to their kid while bad grades will make the same kid fail in life. Why? Because numbers and statistics are telling us a dropout brings less profit than a college graduate. But who makes those statistics? The high ends who run colleges, and expensive faculties, make those statistics. The same high ends where our tuition fees and money and applications go to, make those statistics. The same high ends - who name and appoint officers to take care of the dis-education in a displacing sort between good and bad. Best and worst. A displacing and misplacing process which starts in school. School: a peer pressured and stressful environment lying to both old and new generations about how to succeed in a world full of opportunities giving us direction and strict instructions about the path to take. School: a mind closing, brain washing tool used to numb the youth caging it in a building, training it to answer quick and short instead of deeply analyze a problem and find creative solutions. We live in a society that is collapsing on itself. Once the greedy will be satisfied, the poor stripped of their last clothes, what will we have left? The process has begun. They are stealing our money, our properties, our logics. They are slowly stealing our thinking and rationing, feeding the poor and the middle class with dirt cheap education. Founds get cut up every year. Every new bill passed is a page more ripped from our books. For every teacher fired, a thousand dropouts. For every subject held, a new F in our curriculum. They are stealing the only power we had left. The power of knowledge and it's up to us,us college students, us high school students. Us youth to start the movement to reeducate this society. To show those principals, those administrators and tresourers, politicians and governors that we hold our books tight. We sit in our classrooms ready to fight, to abolish standards and poor education. To move, unite, towards our goal of a better life. Unite yet not alike. Because difference is what makes us equal. Difference is what holds us together. And no test - and no bill - nor worst or best or deal will make us change our minds. A better education is needed. It's required and should be given - for free, to everyone. © 2014 GZReviews
