[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is like pre-season when will the leagues of FARM and SES start training camp? Really, SES thinks that FARM don't value education or they aren't educated. This is league is so much vicious than the Us vs Them league.[/quote] Unfortunately it's true that a segment of the low-SES community does not value education. There is a cultural element that at its extremes has a fundamental disrespect for and rejection of education, together with misguided notions and characterizations, for example saying it's' "acting white" to strive to be educated. It spits in the face of all those who fought for, sacrificed for, and in some cases died for the right of the disadvantaged and underprivileged to get an education. But, they don't know better - it's a cultural meme working its way through parts of our society like a disease.[/quote]
