Education is the key?

I enjoyed this spoken word poem, and thought Darryll's perspective about education was insightful and interesting.  There are many educated people in the world who are ignorant when discussing topics such as racism.  I thoroughly enjoyed the line in the poem about educated and knowledgeable people not having common sense.  For instance, at school many students may refer each other as 'stupid' for not doing well on math or science tests, although there are significant multiple intelligence such as a creative musical intelligence.  I think education is important because knowledge is power and power can change the world.
