Knowledge is the filter through which all reality must pass to obtain more purified.
In these months I have been very close to what the learning and teaching, I have witnessed as a young teacher spends hours preparing classes and talking about the flavors and rewards without the educational process in today's youth, the divorce between the real problems for certain segments of the student population and educational programs, how difficult to understand the teen the benefits of knowledge, etc..
This moved me to my student days in the little country, where one of the lockers when we went to the street was that of literacy to everyone who could not read and write when you give the victory. It was no secret that right or would suit him best for a people without education as it becomes manageable, influenced, docile and cheaper with regard to the cost of labor.
With the triumph of the FMLN was known beforehand that it was going to play the economic structure as it was a victory electioneering and not a revolutionary victory, the institutions that safeguarded the liberal left intact and the management of the first government of the front be limited to cosmetic reforms, but swinging to the way the background.
We had great faith but who are unable to change the economic system, if it could carry out a major investment in the education of the people, because as I said before, one of the main objectives of any real revolution is the literate the people that the new man must be nourished by bread alone but also of knowledge, it will come to know through his latest release.
A human being who can read and write will have greater opportunity to place their environment and to purify their reality through the filter of knowledge. That must be for me, the goal of education.
paraphrase one verse of the song Silvio Rodriguez The Hip: "if knowledge is not a right, sure to be a left," seems that in the little country and learning is neither a right nor left, much less a ambidextrous and the longed campaign literacy is still sleeping the sleep of the righteous.
