A black agenda is jobs jobs jobs quality education investment in infrastructure and strong democratic regulation of corporations. The black agenda at its best looks at America from the vantage point of the least of these and asks what's best for all.

The regeneration of society is the regeneration of society by individual education.

For every fresh stage in our lives we need a fresh education and there is no stage for which so little educational preparation is made as that which follows the reproductive period.

Reforming public education cutting property taxes fixing adult and child protective services and funding our budget can all occur when Democrats and Republicans engage in consensus and cooperation - not cynicism and combat.

One of the critical issues that we have to confront is illegal immigration because this is a multi-headed Hydra that affects our economy our health care our health care our education systems our national security and also our local criminality.

Education therefore is a process of living and not a preparation for future living.

The principle goal of education in the schools should be creating men and women who are capable of doing new things not simply repeating what other generations have done.

I add this that rational ability without education has oftener raised man to glory and virtue than education without natural ability.
