This image captures the goal of Free the Children, the people of the world uniting in one common goal, to educate the world; closing their eyes to racism and helping their under privileged brothers and sisters in other countries around the world to build schools which in turn creates a stronger, united global community. By holding hands, all the children become equal, and there is no separation between class, age, or gender. The children are trying to make a change in our society and closing their eyes to past problems our societies have faced, only looking to the future to make the best of what we have. I personally connected to this photo because it showed me the unlimited potential of youth in our world. By lying down and creating a circle they are unified and showing that there is never a beginning or an end when it comes to helping out another individual. There will always be a need, and there always has been. Like Arthur and his round table, there is no one at the head, and no one at the foot. When they lie down it symbolizes their equality, no one is higher than another, and no one is lower than the others. Although we are building schools to educate the underprivileged, it is often them who teach us the most valuable lessons, showing us that we are all students in the global education system. By donating to Free the Children we are not only helping to build schools for the underprivileged, we are helping to create the leaders of tomorrow through the students of today.
