Education, too often, is talking about a subject and avoiding
the practice of the subject. In human rights education this is
extremely important and in education very difficult. In the USA
we have a system, that must run smoothly, some times at the
expense of the students, teachers, parents and others rights.
Until we can have a system that shows, on a daily basis, that
human rights are the core of what is happening, we will have
difficulty getting the message across to students, teachers,
parents, administrators and the citizenry. I think, too often,
we have told others about human rights education and not paid
enough attention to what we are doing in our own systems. P
