'revolution can start by...'
rdiffender,
Your thinking about cycles here -- e.g. certain people seeming to need 'help' because those very folks who might offer that help in fact helped to create the difficulty in the first place -- makes me think about the way Freire talks about the relationship between 'oppressed' and 'oppressor.' While it's relevant and useful to complicate this binary, as we have been doing, it can also be useful to look at the binary in terms of cyclical interaction.
I like your focusing in then on teaching and individuals, and/but would like to hear more about how 'revolution can start by convincing one student that his/her contribution to the world is a valuable one.' Is this revolutionary because if/when people see themselves in this way they become able to intervene in history (to use Freire's terms) and make change?
