The Rise and Fall of the Boston School

New England was a hotbed of the Protestant reformation. So therefore, they kind of were a little bit ahead of the curve in terms of literacy. The idea is that we can communicate and learn from the divine directly because we have the power to read scripture. In the south, which was always a more brutal, hierarchical arrangement, you would have a ton of says 1600s indentured servants first. They can't read and the people at the top are stoked about that. And anyway, there are so many things to say about this. We know over time schools did eventually become the norm in the United States.
