It's pretty hard to come to terms with realising you have a problem, let alone many of them.
The kids in Dan's class are exploring the Civil Rights Movement in conjunction with opposing forces that have different beliefs, fighting for what they believe is right, and not seeing eye to eye. This aspect of teaching can be presented in Dan and Drey's life. They are both trying to find some sort of balance, trying to find people to rely on in a sense, to feel loved or at least heard. But just because someone is giving you their attention doesn't mean its for the best. And just because someone has an opinion on something, doesn't mean that they are right. From someone on the outside that only knows the basics of a person, doesn't mean its the full picture. And here, with Dan and Drey, teacher and student, the opposing forces of who they are supposed to be blur to become just simply who they are. And they are more than what we see from a distance.
