It would be a contradiction in terms if the oppressors not only defended but actually implemented a liberating education.

Paulo FreireBeing tolerant does not mean acquiescing to the intolerable; it does not mean covering up disrespect; it does not mean coddling the aggressor or disguising aggression. Tolerance is the virtue that teaches us to live with the different. It teaches us to learn from and respect the different.
