Just thinking about what quick, digestible document I could throw at libs who are panicking and desperate for something to hold on to and i can’t really think of something that’s written for treat demons but still actually communist.
Any thoughts?
Teach a person to read and they have a powerful weapon they can use to help solve problems facing their community.
And from what I’ve heard from adult literacy teachers, people very much do want to learn. It’s an enormous handicap and isolates you greatly.
Since written words were developed all the people who encounter them come to value reading as one of the most desirable skills a person can have. And in our world where being able to operate a computer is the difference between work and unemployment having a good foundation of reading skills is critical.
I’m not arguing in favor of illiteracy I’m saying that the average person won’t make time to get more literate between their three jobs but they will show up to get free groceries or a dental exam
