“Anything we can do to convene those living around the school and within the school, to participate, to take a little of school’s destination in the hand [...] is still little, considering the immense work that puts before us that is to take this country democratically.”

“The possibility that humans have to act on the objective reality and know that they act, which results that make it as object of their curiosity, their communication mediated by the reality, through their curiosity, their plurality of responses to a singular challenge, to testify that there is criticalness in the relations between them and the world. Their consciousness, which is not arbitrary maker of objectivity, with which constitutes a dialectical unity, isn’t, for this same reason, a pure copy, a simple reflection of that. Hence this note of criticalness can not be understood neither, on the one hand, by whom absolutizes the objectivity, nor, the other, by whom absolutizes consciousness.”
Paulo Freire, Cultural Action for Freedom and other writings, 1976.
