Inorder to prepare our young children, for tomarrow's challenges. Many of those young children are being 'pushed', 'enticed', 'tempted' and 'seduced' intothe streets awaiting arms. Destined to fall into the 'criminal' lifestyle, which50 is the feeder system, for these places, 'poor man's' college. Where, majority of prisoner's only 'sink' deeper into crime, once they do finally get here, talent's born wither & die. For us, unfortunately 'prison-cells' will have to become 'classroom's' too.

We will have to prepare ourselves and the next generation, equipped with the proper tools needed to function in, an 'advanced' world. Educational systems50 must be re-fitted with current computer-models. The language of software must be taught with the language of hardware, (nomatter) our whereabouts. My school has been prison cells. Not, because the state, but in 'spite' of the state. Books, literature, and information is what makes the school into a school, not the 'buildings' people may read them at, or study them at63 . Levert "Sekou" Brookshire 313 Words. The CellDweller
