Curing Ignorance One Page at a Time #2: Transcendence
Book: Cultural Action for Freedom by Paulo Freire
When I was traveling down south in India, I went to this place called Vattakanal.
It's a beautiful village in the hills and is pretty famous for it's naturally growing magic mushrooms. :)
Vattakanal, India
I stayed in a cottage owned by a man called Eddie. He's been living there for the last 40 years.
He's a great artist and makes some trippy paintings like this one:
Eddie sometimes travels to different places to put up his stuff in exhibitions around the world.
When I was about to leave the cottage, Eddie gifted me this small book as a parting gift.
The book highlights the importance of education to human rights.
Paulo Freire was one of the most widely read educational philosophers and practitioners in the world, except in the United States, where he remained relatively unknown to many in the educational community as well as the general public. Hopefully, this will change and people will start reading some more meaningful and informational stuff here in America.
If you guys ever pick this book up and read it, let me know what you think about it.
Love and Peace,
A'
That's very nice friend.
