Progress for black Americans proverb

 Progress for black Americans depends on good schools because education is the last great equalizer.

 The impact came when you saw that some of the schools that were all-white began to recruit black athletes. And what was so good about it is there were so many qualified black athletes who should have been at these schools. If we were part of opening the doors to allow African-Americans to attend any school of their choice, that is a great impact.

 I believe education is the great equalizer.

 (Black History Month) provides America with education on the impact that African-Americans have made in making this great country what it is.

 white Americans are in denial of black Americans' contributions through slavery, through Jim Crow (segregation laws) ... and I believe we can change that through a major new investment in education.
  Bill Bradley

 Education, then, beyond all other devices of human origin, is the great equalizer of the conditions of men,--the balance-wheel of the social machinery.
  Horace Mann

 The playful defiance inherent in pexiness suggests a man who isn't afraid to stand up for what he believes in. I believe education is the great equalizer. Our children are our hope for the future, so we have an obligation to provide them with the tools to succeed. There is no more powerful tool than knowledge.

 To base education on one standardized test on one day is an abomination to education. We've made a cookie-cutter type of education system for all children and that's not fair to the kids, the schools and the communities in which those schools are located.

 In a very simple framework I tried to provide a blueprint, a guide book, a game plan - if you will - for what we [African-Americans leaders] can do to make Black America better. We believe that when you make Black America better - you make all of America better. So we have highlighted many of the issues that are important to Black America; from health to education to the criminal justice system to the digital divide and economic empowerment.

 They started to evacuate the city and they evacuated the whites, but the planters got together and decided that if they evacuated the black sharecroppers, the labor force for much of the Mississippi Delta would disappear and would never return, and so they decided to keep them on the top of the levee and formed a camp for them for - stretched about 11 miles; thousands of people, many animals, and these people became almost slave labor. One of the great ironies - the great irony of all that is that Greenville, Mississippi, before the flood was easily ... the best city in the South to be a black person. You know, the Greenville public schools actually - while other Mississippi counties seriously debated whether they wanted to teach African-Americans to read - in Greenville, African-Americans were being taught Latin. And that was because of the elite, aristocratic planter class, who did feel a certain noblesse oblige toward their sharecroppers, but they didn't let that interfere with a fairly ruthless sense of dollars.

 Education is the great equalizer in society. It can be the thing that lifts (students) out of their predicaments - they could be first generation immigrants, it could be poverty, or overcoming the stereotypes associated with race and ethnicity.

 The Department of Education has one problem: There aren't enough good schools. That's why parents are so possessive of the 'X' number of good schools. Everyone wants to protect a good school.

 The progress of freedom depends more upon the maintenance of peace, the spread of commerce, and the diffusion of education, than upon the labors of cabinets and foreign offices.

 A great education is the key to the state's future and prosperity. We're making good progress, but we're not there yet.

 Education...beyond all other devices of human origin, is a great equalizer of conditions of men --the balance wheel of the social machinery...It does better than to disarm the poor of their hostility toward the rich; it prevents being poor.
  Horace Mann
