How do you think Frankfurt School thoughts can be applied to today in our own culture?

Nowadays our culture is polluted with many expectatives about how we must be. This does not allow us to see beyond. We receive every day a lot of advertisements and opinions of the others that makes us understimate ourselves. It refers to our education which is really objective instead of subjective. This educational system looks for results and statistics. It does not worry about social and contextualized knowledge. Children are learning many things that are not remarkable for them and this cause that they are not interested in the teacher is teaching. It is a huge problematic that we, as teachers., must deal with in the future so it makes us to reflect and think about it.

We have to be able of doing away of the thought that we are still prisoners of a system. We are, in effect, but this is because we want to be.  We have the power of change the world, our little universe that we are. For this reason, we can tell that Frankfurt School is giving us some guidelines to do it. For instance, we can formulate a new concept of culture. The current definition is harming us because it forbids us to think on our own. In this moment we belong to an industry and we are producing merchandise for this. Our aim must be other. The standardization of knowledges and behaviors  can not continue being the principle of our educational system because it blinds the children's  minds. It insists on they have to be like others are in others parts of the world and being forced to reject their identity and culture.

Following the Frankfurt School guidelines, we found that it is in our hands to be critical thinkers. We might interpret our reality and this will lead us to transformate it. We must begin for ourselves with an individual Project to get individual freedom and then we will be able to empower and merge with social freedom.
