I’m a Bachelor of Science in US History. I’m 41, a non-working artist working as a library assistant, and an avid bird nut.
I believe education is one of the few things that reliably improves peoples’ lives. And I believe the resources of education are hoarded by the rich. I encourage students to stay in school and learn how to use it for their benefit, but I also encourage those who’ve left to educate themselves outside of the academy.
As someone who dropped out of high school and went to college on and off from the ages of 25-40 while working for a living, I know education is a labor issue.
