What We Are Reading Today: ‘Original Sins’ by Eve L. Ewing

Eve L. Ewing’s “Original Sins” shows how US schools were designed to propagate the idea of white intellectual superiority,  to “civilize” Native students and to prepare Black students for menial labor.

By demonstrating that its in the DNA of American schools to serve as an effective and underacknowledged mechanism maintaining inequality, Ewing makes the case for a profound reevaluation of what schools are supposed to do, and for whom.
