You don't have to read white literature to be" well rounded" or "play the game" or be "educated" or "competitive." I tell my students, spark notes these texts for references BUT let's read literature that is more relevant and inclusive to our community

Private schools (not parochial schools) are not better than public schools. Private schools exclude most of the students we work with. Private school education is greatly supplemented by wealthy parents.

If your family benefited from the GI Bill in the 40s, 50s, & 60s(education and housing), your generational wealth was created by the federal government. Imagine where you would be without government handouts.
