Why do we need education?
The reason for the working class must be different from one for the rich people. For the working class, education is needed, because it provides us more “opportunities for job advancement” and chances “to escape from a life of mere labor.” On the other hand, for the rich, education is required to keep their social status.
I think that education system exists for keeping the hierarchy and reproducing the elite. To success in school – to be one of the elite – must require a person who belongs to the working class to change his way and view of life. Therefore, it is true that education in some way alienates us from our parent, our class and our origins unless we belong to the elite. After achieving his desire, Rodriguez must lament not being proud of his parents’ enormous native intelligence, which he could not learn in the world of school.
