To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
They are born with an equal right to be brought up, to be educated, to be made fit for freedom. They are born with an equal claim on those who are older and wiser than themselves, for that government, that restraint and co- ercion, without which not one of them in twenty would ever live to be a man. They are born with an equal claim upon the state, for the enacting of such laws as shall secure these benefits to them ; as shall fit them for the enjoyment of free- dom and make them freemen. They ...have a claim for such laws as shall do this, in the most speedy and eft'eclual man- ner which the circumstances of society permit. It is not true that all children, throughout the whole earth, nave a claim for the same laivs and the same instruction. The child of an Esquimaux may not demand of his parents, the same education which is due to a child in Vermont ; for the parent cannot give it, and no one is bound to perform what is impossible. Esquimaux children, then, have no claim on the Esquimaux community, for laws requiring such an education ; but they have a claim on their parents and on the community, to do all that their circumstances render possible, towards fitting them for all the rights and privi- leges in that country ; and they have aright to such laws as shall secure to them the enjoyment of Esquimaux freedom, whenever they are fit for it.
