Kozol - points
(105-6) -- correlation between scores, drop outs, and funding
high expectations - "they" do not provide students with what they need to succeed (whoever does funding) - government? - new york state government...some city, some state. property taxes.
working-class peoples' faults for not owning property
government: redistribution of taxes into education? at fault?
(115) - looking for a home - white and wealthy or black or white and poor - property-owning relation to education in the neighborhood (118) - district 10 ---
(94) - no point putting more money into poor districts - (99) - join the military - why fight? (100) - welfare hospital - no right to complain
(78) - no class distinction - competition - social construction over meaning of competition - usurping ownership and theory of equality - respect writers' ideas regardless of class background - collaborative learning: having an equalized conversation about each topic ---
the education system teaches students that they don't have value
(122) - busing students from a ghetto - south bronx - not prone to learn - it has to be the people that want to care - you have to want it for yourself - different mentalities
big themes: inequality, taxes and income, race/racism
