School Ain't No Way: Appalachian Consciousness

How do you explain to someone the death of something that only lasted eleven weeks? How do you explain to someone that you have been destroyed by something that is one dimensional and rejects all alternatives? How do you explain to someone the pissed off feeling you have when you have been jilted from a beautiful love affair? How do you explain to someone that this love affair consisted of reaching out to children who were non-communicative and who constantly rejected your love? How do you explain to someone that your dreams of changing the system have been shattered and you don’t care about reaching for the stars anymore? —From the introduction of the book
