Sixty, and i came up to a segregated school system. There was a time where we do not educate all of our people. Think about how many oof my family members were educated. Could he speak to the concept of rather than we are saying education is for the public good but as a nation founded on the principles of equality and justice for all, yet we are now, in a modern world, saying that we do not value the public good of education.
