Black Students

Famous quotes containing the words black and/or students:

“Let the Brazos
Freeze solid! And the Wabash turn to a leaden
Cinder of ice! The Marañon is too tepid, we must
Is freezing slowly in the blasts. The black Yonne
Congeals nicely.”

“We must continually remind students in the classroom that expression of different opinions and dissenting ideas affirms the intellectual process. We should forcefully explain that our role is not to teach them to think as we do but rather to teach them, by example, the importance of taking a stance that is rooted in rigorous engagement with the full range of ideas about a topic.”
—bell hooks (b. 1955)
