First thought about the quote was about the archaic language and how the quote can only be understood by people versed in academic language (maybe Brazilians have better vocab?) which is exclusive therefor oppressive.
Totally agree. You have to be part of the system to destroy the system that prevents you being yourself in the system!
I am an advocate for schools like the Sudbury Schools in the USA, where the children decide their own paths of learning. In the context of Nature school teaching we do well at letting children decide for themselves what they value. I have been known to tell the children about the Tragedy of the Commons as a way to try and get everyone to tidy up!! Unfortunately Nature schools are not funded so access is denied to many. How do we change this?
