Literacy with an Attitude by Finn

Argument 

Across the preface Finn asks what powerful literacy is and why and why it's beneficial for all human beings. He then continues and states that if the wealthy get powerful literacy nothing will be different but if the poor people receive the powerful literacy they can make a change if they choose to soak it up. He states that to exist in a higher quality and  world with social justice, the poor and wealthy are empowered through powerful literacy and empowering education. He ensures that the citizens who belong to the working class that have been provided with powerful literacy and quality education can produce change through their perfectiveness in order to face struggle with inequality and injustice. He is prone to compare the situation against injustice and inequality to the past like colonial times in the case of democracy or communist organizers after world war 2. He feels that in the United states,education is structured and along social class and economic lines among the working class and the upper class or high earners. He says and doesn’t deny the truth that schools are trying to provide equal opportunities and not reaching out to their students in significant ways that will break the mold. He describes the disparity between yearning literacy to the upper class will not be effective or this literacy is oftentimes taught in school to match the higher class's values. While the worth and experiences of working-class children are devalued and  irrelevant. He also makes remarks on how literacy is usually taught in a manner that does not put any respect on the experienced or cultural knowledge that the working-class children already have to contribute to school. If the teachers  teach powerful literacy to the working class, things will be different. Which means that if the working class are provided with this empowering literacy they will have the knowledge and motivation to achieve high-level jobs and positions in professions and employment. Finnis central argument: that working-class children are often taught a "working-class" form of literacy which keeps them in positions of subordination in society. They never achieve their potential and think out of the box to bring about change and chase hard working high places careers, if they don't receive a powerful education. Without this “powerful literacy” change of the system will never occur and things will remain the same,Finn explains that education can give children the power to change the world around them. Finn is demanding a change of thought in relation to literacy in education. He argues that schools should not merely look to deliver a normative model of literacy, but should ensure that all students, and particularly those from the working-clas
