they still have the nerve to get up at 8th grade graduation and pat themselves on the back for helping these poor backwards Southerners, these poor Katrina victims who can't help themselves and must need Chicago to rescue them. The level of paternalism, the level of condescension they showed all of us continues to anger and frustrate me. They had no right to treat us like that.


I'm sure you know this, but that particular sort of attitude is not even remotely isolated to your own school or even "education" in particular in New Orleans... ugh. :/
