    “Father didn’t teach or guide us much, because he let us listen and think for ourselves.”

    It’s often overlooked how curiosity-centric education is foundational in propagating anarchism. It reminds me of a quote from Emma Goldman describing her Modern School:

    The underlying principle of the Modern School is this: education is a process of drawing out, not of driving in; it aims at the possibility that the child should be left free to develop spontaneously, directing his own efforts and choosing the branches of knowledge which he desires to study.
