Week 10 Xiao Zhang A03


In this week’s reading “Awaken: Power, Resistance, and Being Woke”, The article specifically talks about the inequity in America’s education and how students and educators should do with it. I remembered the professor specifically talked about this topic in the class. She said that today’s education agencies suppress educators and students from gaining their equal legal rights because they are afraid that student might make them fail to have their illegal benefit. Indeed, students and educators should be vigilant about the inequity in their learning and teaching environment and should always brave to fight against those inequities in their lives. 

There is one mentioning in the article I think is specifically interesting -- it talks about how corruption became the reason executives reject to obligate their honesty, integrity, and force inequal right to general students and educators. Indeed, educators and students how work and study at college should always be aware of their rights and stay awake. If they don’t care about their deserved rights, others would take it for free and deprive those rights of them. I believe there is still a long way to go, but this article definitely reminds/alerts people to retrieve their legal rights.

Question: How could we be truly and constantly awake -- how does it help to
retrieve out legal rights?
