Afro-centric School Debate Pierre Bourdieu. Afro-Centric schools are a life preserver that is being offered up by one of many ethnic groups struggling in the stormy seas of Canada’s public school system. Without the support of a much larger rescue craft that has to come in the form of a major overhaul of curriculum, the current state of the Canadian public schools will soon move from individual “Mayday” calls to something much worse. Thursday, April 5, 2012. A language that everybody can understand.

The View from my Theoretical Lens. A critical analysis of a variety of sociological topics. Sunday, 25 March 2012. Today's Questions Don't Have Just One Answer. This video was created by a school longing for a technological upgrade. What I would like to call the Borg Innuendo is displayed in the following video.

The View from my Theoretical Lens. A critical analysis of a variety of sociological topics. Sunday, 25 March 2012. Damage to Divergent Thinking. This video is visually enticing to view and speaks on how our education system lowers divergent thinking and creates a population of uninspired individuals.
