In preparation for this paper I chose to read Fire in the ashes: twenty five years among the poorest children in America by Jonathan Kozol. In this book Kozol has followed these children and their family’s lives for the past twenty five years. In his writing Kozol portrays a point of view most from his background and standing would not be capable of having. He portrays what life is like for those who have been let down by the system that was meant to protect them. Kozols writing style can be very blunt at times, not for shock value, but for the sake of portraying these children’s realities, and not sugarcoating the inequalities that they are faced with.

Chapter 8 stated that a transformation engine, such as Burning Man has been creating an actual difference in humanity as Burning Man allows individuals “to break out of the box that confines us” (158). The festival has converted to a type of specialized improvement and is now a destination for the Silicon Valley elite to step outside and go big since Burning Man inspires a huge amount of theory.
