I deally, what should be said to every child, repeatedly, throughout his or
her school life is something like this: ‘You are in the process of being
indoctrinated.… What you are being taught here is an amalgam of
current prejudice and the choices of this particular culture. The slightest
look at history will show how impermanent these must be. You are being
taught by people who have been able to accommodate themselves to a
regime of thought laid down by their predecessors. It is a self-
perpetuating system.’1
Doris Lessing
