Abstract

We want education to shape children into good members of society. But children are pulled in different directions by different people. For us, a good member of society means someone who does not discriminate, seeks justice for all, and respects everyone. But children’s immediate social environment often teaches them that their own group is superior and other groups (castes, religions, genders, classes and so on) are inferior.
