"yet there is hardly a school in the country that has not organized children into groups labeled 'dumb' so that both their teachers and they can know exactly what they 'are.' in other words, using the metaphor 'meaning makers' would help us to abandon our notions of 'fixed intelligence,' which in turn would weaken almost all of our reasons for grouping children and labeling them."
