For many, Paulo Freire may be an unknown pedagogue. Perhaps he is also a revolutionary in pedagogy. For those who have not read him, it may be interesting to do so because he provides an answer to the pedagogical orphanage that we suffer in education in terms of human sensitivity. Technicality and competitiveness are the order of the day, in schools, universities, at work, in sport, in family life, in a word in the whole social structure. It is very difficult to find a pedagogical sensitivity that would make us more respectful of the knowledge that everyone carries, whatever their condition. Knowledge is nobody's possession, it is there to be discovered and shared. Wisdom should not be for sale, like so many other things, someone will say. I can say that I experienced the tenderness of knowledge with Professor Paulo Freire.
