Pedagogy of the Oppressed Quote

PEDAGOGY OF THE OPPRESSED by Paulo Freire

There is no such thing as a neutral educational process. Education either functions as an instrument that is used to facilitate the integration of the younger generation into the logic of the present system and bring about conformity to it, or it becomes “the practice of freedom,” the means by which men and women deal critically and creatively with reality and discover how to participate in the transformation of their world.
-Richard Shaull, publisher’s forward
