       "Toward Ending Ableism in Education," Thomas Hehir addresses what educators, parents, and advocates can do to combat racism, and how progress toward fairness begins with identifying the presence of ableism in schools. The emphasis is on three categories of disability: deafness, blindness/visual impairment, and learning problems. I believe that dismantling dominating educational systems for other handicapped populations can yield similar results. Fortunately, both research and practice offer a solid foundation for creating a better future. I believe that schools can take urgent action against ableism. Include disability as part of schools' overall diversity efforts.       Students with disabilities should be encouraged to acquire and employ the abilities and modes of expression that work best for them.

The Academic and Social Value of Ethnic Studies

Richard firmly believes that bilingual education shouldn’t be used. He suggests that the people that are suffering during their learning process will benefit them in the long run. I disagree with Rodriguez’s opinion because he is only using his experience as to why he wouldn’t recommend it which is very one-sided. Even though I’m not bilingual I feel that it can help a lot when looking for jobs and it could also increase awareness of other cultures. I believe that bilingual education should be integrated into schools to give all students the same opportunity. He begins by reminding his audience that teaching only one language in school is the path that people should lean toward, implying that he is opposed to students being taught many languages. He feels that teachers should not be req...
