This is because white children tend to come from families who have the means and resources to ensure quality education for their children. The truth is that‚ as Wise points out‚ the majority of minority students come from backgrounds with less money and less education than their white counterparts. I believe that this cycle is deeply rooted in our country’s

It was equally astounding for Lessing to make

refers to this theme as the “scourge of his age”. The story‚ written as a play‚ is a fanatical plea for religious tolerance. The church forbade the performance of the play during Lessing’s lifetime; it was first performed in Berlin‚ 1783.

Lessing’s view was we may all be different from each other
