Black Education

Famous quotes containing the words black and/or education:

“A slight wind shakes the seed-pods
my thoughts are spent
as the black seeds.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

“It’s fairly obvious that American education is a cultural flop. Americans are not a well-educated people culturally, and their vocational education often has to be learned all over again after they leave school and college. On the other hand, they have open quick minds and if their education has little sharp positive value, it has not the stultifying effects of a more rigid training.”
—Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)
