The Quiet Crisis

I think we've made some progress from when this essay was written to now. The essay mentions how "we should be concerned about the gaps in our education, infrastructure, and ambitions that threaten to weaken us from within" and over the past several years, I feel there has been a focus on these things. Political leaders have turned their eyes to the education of their country's youth, we're learning about how other countries view ours and our ambitions, drawing our own conclusions from what we can gather... The essay feels a little out-dated.

Creativity vs Rote Learning - Are they really all that different?

I understand that the world views the people of each group differently, at least. We each seem to have a reputation that follows us around.
