That's an interesting thought.. My grandpa still can't read (he's 90). Doesn't stop him from talking BS all day and making fun of my job when I see him. He probably would have made a good consultant now that I think about it, if not for the whole 5th grade education / life on a farm thing.
Haha. P1 to your grandfather you don't really have a job. You are a "suit". He can probably run circles around the rest of us.
US.. farm in Oklahoma.
Yea rates in the south for African Americans were embarrassingly high until very recently. Sad how little this country has done historically to help educational attainment in poor areas / minority areas.. My grandpa is Native American and experienced a similar lack of educational infrastructure.
@A3 My family grew up on a cotton farm in the South. Literacy rates of black folk back then were pretty bad. Especially in rural areas. Cuz racism lol.
A 90 yo who can't read seems strange to me. Was he born in the US? Just trying to get a feel for the extent of the bubble I might be living in.
My grandfather is 76 by the way.
