MODERATORS
They are being economically prevented from education, that is effectively barring them from a full education, which is a barring of education. If you don't think Higher education is necessary to escape the poverty level that would greatly prevent them from being reenslaved, you are misinformed. I don't think you understand how the US system functions, how it hides the function behind economical status.
They aren't being economically prevented from getting an education. As I said earlier, most have access to free education within the prison system, and 42% complete an additional level of education while incarcerated https://www.newamerica.org/insights/equipping-individuals-life-beyond-bars/results. I don't think you understand the huge difference between that and having laws against teaching you to read.
You're ignoring half my argument consistently, have a good day.
