An Appropriate Reflection on Equality, Following Our 4th of July Celebration

From Lilian Katz, a noted Early Childhood Educator: “I think the great struggle of our time – and no doubt for generations to come – is the struggle for equality.  But we might ask: equality of what?  People are not equally tall or musical or mathematical or athletic or beautiful; but they are equally human!  They are equally human in the sense that they all have hopes, and dreams, and wishes and fantasies and aspirations and fears and doubts.  They all want to be treated with respect and dignity and want to feel loved by someone.  In these ways it seems to me, all of the world’s people have much more in common than they have apart!”
