Answer:s a black man in the 1950s, a time during which racism was rampant, the odds were against E.R. Braithwaite. Few people expected him to succeed as an engineer, much less as a high school teacher in London's East End. His all-white students were disrespectful at best, and delinquent at worst—an impossible gaggle of undereducated, hormonal teenagers who had no respect for his authority. And yet, despite these bumpy beginnings, Braithwaite was able to turn things around by using a simple but unusual tactic: He would treat his students as adults.

Braithwaite wrote of his experiences in his autobiographical novel, To Sir, With Love, in 1959. Eight years later, it became the classic film of the same name, with Sidney Poitier stepping into Braithwaite's shoes. Like its source material, the movie is a stirring tribute to the powerful relationships between teachers and students, adults and children. It also serves as an example of how, by recognizing the inherent and equal value of every individual, we can transcend racial and class barriers—whether that's in the classroom, or outside of it.

In the excerpt of To Sir, With Love below, Braithwaite is still new to Greenslade Secondary School, located in a rough part of the city. After weeks of unsuccessful lessons, he tries a new approach with his students, and finally gets their attention
