IMO this comment takes a very cynical and US centric view of things.
I've found this story was well written and pretty inspiring. Just because people are privileged doesn't mean they don't struggle or that their struggles can't teach us things.
It's surprising to see this sort of toxicity in hacker news.
That's a pretty racist thing to say. Their race has nothing to do with their story. Would your comment have applied if this person was the same race as you?
You can't imagine their struggle because you didn't read what they wrote. You just glanced at the picture plastered at the top. Just cause you don't know how to read/write != you have jeopardized a kid's education.
Please provide evidence. Last I checked most schools have exams, and teachers performance is monitored. You don’t become a teacher, and suddenly face no further professional evaluation.
