"Education is not a neutral process. Either it functions to initiate the younger generation into the logic of the system and conform 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 transform it..." -Richard Shaull, Preface to Pedagogy of the Oppressed
