Q/D #5
"I always saw teaching adults to read and write as a political act, an act of knowledge, and therefore as a creative act" (page 10).
This quote really intrigued me because when you are learning to read and write you don't think of it as any of the things Freire listed, but you think of it as a way of communicating. Freire's idea made learning to read and write more of a meaningful thing rather than something that everyone does just because they are supposed to. It opened up my idea of what reading and writing is, and now I know why we put so much value on words and the world in our society.
