In our discussion group we talked about Friere’s quote “The truth is, however, that the oppressed are not “marginals,” are not people living “outside” society. They have always been “inside”—inside the structure which made them “beings for others.” From this we got that oppression plays a big role in our society and that their needs to be a change to stop this. Their needs to be more for the oppressed to do so that they can become more a part of society. Jake connected to Friere’s quote by talking about the foundation that he is apart of, this foundation helps children in Chester through back to school giveaways and other things to help out. We hear all the time how kids in areas such as Chester to make it out of their poor situation, it is hard for them to make something out of their lives when they come for nothing. Their needs to be something that our society can do to make it easier for them to make something out of their lives.
