Ultimate Learning Disability

"Why don't you do yourself a favor and go back to your white-bread, suburban, cesspool land while you still have a chance?"
--Victor Duncan (The Principal)

There are those who refuse to learn because an instructor (defined as anyone who has something useful to teach) is not like the student in some demographic way. The instructor might have a different skin color, gender, country of origin, social status, income level, et al.

Although social identity theory suggests we might expect as much, this is a foolish form of discrimination. Choosing not to learn because the teacher is not 'like me' may be the ultimate learning disability.

Doing so compromises the quest for knowledge and truth.
