"Placing the burden on the individual to break……" — Jonathan Kozol

"Placing the burden on the individual to break down doors in finding better education for a child is attractive to conservatives because it reaffirms their faith in individual ambition and autonomy. But to ask an individual to break down doors that we have chained and bolted in advance of his arrival is unfair."

— Jonathan Kozol
