Prayer or not, I want to believe that, despite all evidence to the contrary, it is possible for anyone to find that one special person.

Schools should be democratic public spheres. They should be places that educate people to be informed, to learn how to govern rather than be governed, to take justice seriously, to spur the radical imagination, to give them the tools that they need to be able to both relate to themselves and others in the wider world.
