In reply to Mapp. To me hearing older people talk about the "gold old days" feels really difficult because then you get that question--- good old days for who? I think she was in middle and high school in the 60s, was that the good old days for disabled students? Black students? I'm a teacher and I do think the public schools system is fucked. A lot of it hinges on domination and students don't tolerate being dominated. Which I love, but again the whole system rest on control and it's falling apart as people want more freedom. Hopefully we can create an educational system that is about helping kids get more free and not forcing them to do boring shit all day.
