I just sued the school system this video was made by Prince, EA I've been following for a very long time actually he makes super unique and creative videos and a lot of the time He raps or rhymes to get his message across But this is a very highly requested video that you guys wanted me to react to from Prince, EA. It's called I just sued the school system So I think this video basically portrays everything else that Prince EA thinks is wrong with the school system so Prince EA is actually known as Richard Williams he's a spoken word artist poet rapper and Filmmaker so before I begin I want you guys to go check out his channel subscribe. I'm not gonna watch the whole thing I'm gonna go through it so if you guys want to watch the whole thing It's gonna be in the description But I'm gonna go through I'm gonna say my thoughts we're gonna break down the lyrics so I guess the spoken word phrases that he says I will see if I'm disagreeing or agreeing with him But without further ado welcome to reaction time. Let's get right into the video I just sue the school system. I Prince EA Albert Einstein once says Everybody's a genius, but if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree it Will live it's whole life believing That it is stupid Ladies and gentlemen of the jury today on trial we have modern day schooling glad you could come Not only does he make fish climb trees But also makes them climb down first of all can I just say the production level is absolutely amazing, okay So this is actually his most popular video I think This the one that I watched in which I got introduced to Prince Ea and his work this video when complete of our only has 20 Million views, it's called Can we auto correct humanity I bet a lot of you guys are familiar with this selfies not enough us's and we's Technology has made us more selfish and separate than ever. basically the video wraps up the idea that Technology creates less social interactions and real-life experiences in general, but let's go back to this video I just basically want to show you guys how many different videos about how many different topics Prince EA actually makes this is not his only video that I really enjoy. Tell me school. Are you proud of the things you've done Turning millions of people into robots. Do you find that fun? Do you realize how many kids relate to that fish swimming upstream in class never finding their gifts thinking They are stupid believing they are useless. Well the time has come no more excuses I call school to the stand and accuse him of killing creativity Individuality and being intellectually abusive. this can relate to a lot of you guys I mean a lot of you guys are still in school So you might have not formed a complete opinion yet on what you think about school But when you're done with school you'll get a better idea personally for me when I went to school every single day I thought as the years went by I actually felt, I can only think a certain way I just remember I was a kid being so creative the sky was the limit right so I had so much imagination I thought anything was possible in a sense I felt like school and Growing up in general kind of ruins that more people say you can't do this you can't do that you have to do this this Is how everything is I think that's what he's trying to say here. That's school instead of helping you create It does the exact opposite, it makes everyone think a certain way He's an ancient institution that has outlived his usage, so your honor this concludes my opening statement And if I may present the evidence of my case I will prove it Proceed exhibit a here's a modern day phone recognize it here's a phone from 150 years ago Big difference right stay with me here's a car from today, and here's a car from 150 years ago big difference, right? Well get this here's a classroom of today, and here's a class we used 150 years ago, that's absolutely shocking So he's saying there's no innovation at all and schooling practically nothing changed You come to school you sit there for eight hours or however long Your school session is everybody has a different school session for me it was about eight hours You absorb everything your teacher tells you and then it just repeats. In literally more than a century Nothing has changed yet you claim to prepare students for the future But with evidence like that I must ask Do you prepare students for the future or the past I did a background check on you and let the record show that you were Made to train people to work in factories which explains why you put students in straight rows nice and neat Tell them sit still raise your hand if you want to speak give him a short break to eat and for eight hours a day tell them what to think oh and make them compete to get an A a letter which determines product quality It's grade a of meat, so that's actually the most annoying thing for me is the grading system in general I feel it does not reflect on a person And how smart they are I mean I've seen so many examples Of kids that are very bright and smart always struggling in school due to the fact that they just don't want to do work But they're like very smart kids You know it's a fun fact that Google actually likes to hire workers that are really lazy They like hiring workers are lazy because lazy people can actually find solutions to tough Situations or tough problems so lazy people always want to get things done in the shortest amount of time Which means they can actually find Solutions to doing things in a different way in order to save time, which is actually very interesting I think it's pretty funny that a company like Google a giant company actually favors people that are lazy and Innovative whereas school is the exact opposite and favors people that all think the same Study the same Basically do the same thing in order to get the highest grade back then times were different We all have a past I myself for know Gandhi, but today. We don't need to make robots zombies the world has progressed and now we people who they creatively innovatively critically independently with the ability to connect See every scientist will tell you that no two brains are the same and every parent with two or more children will confirm that claim So please explain why you treat students like cookie cutter frames or snapback hats giving them this one-size-fits-all Crap watch your language, sorry your honor But if a doctor prescribed the exact same medicine to all of his patients The results will be tragic so many people would get sick yet when it comes to school This is exactly what happened, and you guys kind of lost what he was saying or you got caught off track He's just saying every individual is different, so we can't have a system that educates every single person the same It just doesn't make sense just like he's comparing it to medication How you can't give the same medication to every single person because every single person will react to the medication differently. educational malpractice Where one teacher stands in front of 20 kids each one having different strengths different needs different gifts different dreams? And you teach the same thing the same way that's horrific Ladies and gentlemen the defendant should not be acquitted this may be one of the worst criminal offenses ever To be committed and let's mention the way you treat your employees Objection overruled I want to do this. It's a shame. I mean teachers have the most important job on the planet yet they're underpaid No wonder, so many students are short changed lets be honest, teachers should earn just as much as doctors because a doctor can do heart surgery and save the life of a kid But a great teacher can reach the heart of that kid and allow him to truly live See teachers are heroes that often get blamed, but they're not the problem They work in a system without many options or rights. so I think it's amazing that he's not blaming the teachers He's blaming the overall system in which the teachers are under because teachers have to serve the system teachers have to do what the curriculum says. they have to teach a certain amount of things in a certain amount of time. But he's saying if you let teachers do their job the results will be better all created by Policymakers most of which have never taught a day in their life. Just obsessed with standardized tests They think bubbling in a multiple-choice question will determine success That's outlandish in fact these tests are too cruel to be used it should be a band m'kay guys I want to hear your thoughts before I continue What are you guys thinking about school as a whole I think school is very important, so don't get me wrong I don't think school is the problem school teaches you a lot of valuable things like how you need to prevent procrastination Getting to places on time having respect for someone who's in a higher position than you doing things You don't want to do because sometimes in life you're gonna have to do things you're not always happy to do and I think school actually teaches you these values in terms of testing I think that's a very stupid way of determining whether a kid is Intelligent, I don't think it should be applied to human beings I think it's different a lot of people like to compare lab rats for example how? Scientists always conduct tests on lab rats, and how it's very similar to students in a classroom. It's a very interesting Comparison, but like I said, I want to hear your guys thoughts down in the comments below education is very important I think the problem is the system the schooling system the lack of innovation like Prince EA says doing the same thing year after year for the last 100 years if we continue down this road the results will be I don't have much faith in school But I do have faith in people and if we can customize health care Cars and Facebook pages that it is our duty to do the same for education to upgrade a change and do away with school spirit Cuz that's useless unless we're working to bring the spirit out of each and every student That should be our task no more common core instead Let's reach the core of every heart in every class sure math is important, but no more than art or dance Let's give every gift an equal chance. I know this sounds like a dream, but countries like Finland. I'm doing impressive things They have shorter school days teachers make a decent wage homework is non-existent and they focus on collaboration instead of competition but here's the kicker boys and girls their educational system now performs every other country in the Other places like Cigna poor succeeding rapidly schools like Montessori programs like Khan Academy. There is no single solution But let's get moving because while students may be 20% of our population They are 100 percent of our future. Hey guys I'm gonna stop it there obviously what he says is very emotional it touches my heart. I mean I think he's a great speaker He's very talented, and if you guys wanna check out what's gonna be in the description And I also really want to read your comments down below as well So don't be afraid to rants like you guys can even rant if you want if you really? like your school if you respect what school has offered you you can also say that but guys that's gonna wrap it up for the video if you want to check out my second channel is gonna be right there So make sure to subscribe I'd really appreciate it also subscribe to this channel if you haven't already if you have any other very interesting videos like this please comment it down below or send it to me at reaction time we do to gmail.com and Hopefully I will do them here on reaction time I'll react to them and let you know my thoughts but thank you for watching guys.
