A short intro to the eulogy of brevity

My name is Kevin Cordeiro, at the moment I'm in my final year of a bachelors in History. This after a bit of an ideological fall out with the education department. (someone got called a naive puppet of the for-profit education boss-bourgeoisie more interested in the inflation of white middle class students sense of noblese oblige then solving any real problems with the factory education system.) I'm hoping to move on to a graduate degree in secondary education in history from either an out of state or international school. My goal is to research and implement a means of involving local gangs within their local schools and emphasizing their positive aspects while addressing the grievances that bring the gang together in a hopes of debasing the gang hierarchy and shifting it from a  vessel of drug trade and territorial battles to a means of organizing local youths around direct action and autonomous solutions to the struggles of the working and lumpen classes. Its a thesis that needs refinement but one thing that is concrete is that I by no means intend for this to be some far fetched process of assimilation or integration of local gangs into the state-run school apparatus. Instead I see the school as a means of working outside the state and in some ways against it and its owners by taking advantage of the situations and environment produced by the factory school system. In other words, sabotage. I've been a member of the local providence Industrial Workers of the World since 2009, I'll admit I'm a tad behind on paying dues. From my time with the IWW I have had the extreme luck of working with such wonderful people and organizations as RI Jobs With Justice, DARE, ONA, and Libertalia. It was also through the Wobs that I was introduced to the theories and actions of another cause of passion for me, Anti-Fascist and Anti-Racist Action. On the lighter end of the spectrum I have a Fell Terrier named Chomsky and am a 3rd generation soccer hooligan. Seeing as how this is my second to last semester I'm hoping it will be a great one.
