Neutrality


Been spending too much time trying to understand my classmates insistance on the possibility of neutrality.

So I was happy to read this in the text assigned for class:

"Knowing for me is not a neutral act, not only from the political point of view, but from the point of view of my body, my sensual body. It is full of feelings, of emotions, of tastes."
Paulo Freire
From We Make the Road by Walking
A book in dialogue with Myles Horton

There are many more nuggets in the book, but that one screamed at me

I hope my classmates were reading, too.
