UJessica Hoppe ukwigalelo lenkcubeko yoLwazi. Mlandele Instagram kwaye Twitter ngakumbi.
Kwiminyaka emibini edlulileyo, ndaqala iworkshop yam yokuqala yokubhala kwigumbi laseGreenwich Village kanjingalwazi owaziwayo kwisiXeko saseNew York. Ndibhatale amakhulu amahlanu eedola kwiiveki ezintlanu zomyalelo womlilo okhawulezayo ngelixa ndihleli kwisitulo esisongwayo phakathi komgcini-zincwadi osele esidla umhlala-phantsi opapashwe kabini Ijenali yaseWall Street kunye nomphathi we-HR obhale esona sincoko sanamhlanje sothando INew York Times imbali yekholomu. Apho ndafumana isabelo sam sokuqala: isincoko sokuthotywa.
Kwiminyaka engamashumi amathathu anesithandathu ubudala, emva kokuphonswa komsebenzi wefashoni kunye nesithuba esifutshane njengomhleli wendlela yokuphila, bendisebenza njengomncedisi olawulayo kwifemu yezemali - amabhongo am okufunda athotyelwa kwinto yokuzonwabisa ngokuyimfuneko. Ukuba ukuthotywa ibikukuthotywa kweshishini lokupapasha, andisayi kuze ndiphelelwe ngumsebenzi, ndazicingela.
Sekunjalo, kwakukho imfihlelo ehlazo endabhala ngayo ngelo xesha kodwa ayizange ipapashwe, kwaye andizange ndizame, kuba ndandineentloni ngegalelo lam kwityala lesizwe ngoku enyuka ngaphezu kwe-1.6 yezigidi zezigidi zeedola - umthwalo endawuthathayo ngenxa yamathuba okuqhubela phambili kwesizukulwana. kunye nokuzinza kwezemali, kunye nelungelo lokufezekiswa kwekhondo lomsebenzi.
Njengentombi yesithathu yabaphambukeli ababini baseLatinx abaye bavinjwa ukhetho lwabo lwezemfundo, ayizange ibe ngumbuzo wokuba ndifumane isidanga sasekholejini. Ndakufanelekela ukufumana izibonelelo ezithile kwaye ndanikwa imali yokufunda encinane, ukanti uninzi lwezifundo zam zonyaka kwiYunivesithi yaseMntla-mpuma ndandihlawulwa ngemali-mboleko yabafundi. Ndandingumfundi ophazamisekileyo, ndinyanzelwa ukuba ndipakishe ucwangciso lwam lwezifundo kwiveki yeentsuku ezintathu ukuze ndibe nezinye iintsuku ezimbini, ukongezelela kwimpelaveki, ndisebenze njengeweyitala apho ndandifumana umvuzo owaneleyo wokuhlawula iindleko zokuphila.
Ukuya ekholejini kwandixabisa i-100,000 yeedola, endityala kuNavient, owayesakuba nguSallie Mae, ngekamva elibonakalayo. Oku kuzibophelela kwezemali, kwenziwa ekuthwesweni kwesidanga samabanga aphakamileyo ngaphambi kokuba ndibe neakhawunti yam yokuqala yokujonga, kwabonakala kukuphela kwendlela yokubaleka intlupheko yosapho lwam. Ngethemba lokuphuma kubasebenzi ndiye kwiqonga leengcaphephe, ndatyikitya ukuba ndinetyala ubomi bam bonke.
Ityala lemali-mboleko yabafundi linobudlelwane obuqinileyo nokungalingani ngokobuhlanga ngakumbi umsantsa wobutyebi bobuhlanga, uSuzanne Kahn, umlawuli kwiziko iRoosevelt uxelele. IZORA . Ngenxa yokuba abafundi abaNtsundu nabaBrown ngokuqhelekileyo banobutyebi obuncinane bosapho abanokuzoba kubo xa beqala isikolo, bathabatha iimali-mboleko ezinkulu; xa abafundi abaNtsundu nabaBrown bethweswa isidanga, bajongana nocalucalulo ngokobuhlanga emvuzweni kunye nokubekwa kwemisebenzi eyenza kube nzima ukuhlawula imali-mboleko yabo.
Ukucinywa kwamatyala omfundi ngumba wobulungisa bobuhlanga.

Ndachitha iminyaka emine kuMntla-mpuma, ndaphumelela ngo-2005. Ndaceba ukufaka isicelo kwisikolo somthetho, de ndakhethwa ukuba ndibe nesikhundla esiphezulu - nangona ndingahlawulwanga - i-internship eRalph Lauren eNew York, endayixhasa ngemali mboleko yam yabafundi. Ngamanye amazwi, ndihlawule, kwaye ndisahlawula, ngenxa yelungelo lokubasebenzela.
Xa ukuqokelela amatyala am kwaqala emva kokuphumelela, iintlawulo zenyanga zazingenakukwazi ukufikelela. Uninzi lwemisebenzi yenqanaba lokungena kuhlelo lwefashoni ayizange ihlawulwe, kwaye abo bavuzwayo banikezela ngemivuzo enzima ngaphandle kwenkxaso-mali yabazali - into wonke umntu kwiqela lam ekubonakala ukuba unayo ngaphandle kwam. Ndavuma ukuhlehliswa kunye nezicwangciso zokunyamezela de zonke iinketho ziphelile, ndiphindaphinda ibhalansi yetyala lam kunye nenzala. Ngenxa yekamva lam lezemali liphazamisekile njengamanqaku am etyala, ekugqibeleni ndanyanzelwa kwisikhundla solawulo ukuzinzisa umvuzo wam, nto leyo eyayiquka ukungenisa phantse isiqingatha somvuzo wam wenyanga kuloo minyaka mine inzima yokufunda ukuya kumsebenzi endingazange ndiwulandele.
Ngenxa yobhubhani, iintlawulo zemali-mboleko yabafundi ziye zanqunyanyiswa ukuya kutsho nge-31 kaDisemba, 2020. Iintlawulo zam mboleko zabucala zibuyiselwe kwisixa esilawulekayo- 4 xa kuthelekiswa nesiqhelo i-0 - kwaye, okokuqala, ndiye ndaziva. amandla omvuzo wam. Ndiyakwazi ukuhlawula ityala lekhadi letyala, ndithathe amanyathelo ayimfuneko ukugcina impilo yam, kwaye ndityale ixesha kunye nemali kuthando lwam - ukuguqula icala lam libe ngumsebenzi wexesha elizeleyo.
Umongameli onyuliweyo uJoe Biden uphonononge izimvo ezahlukeneyo malunga nokucinywa kwamatyala omfundi: ukunqunyulwa kwangoko kwe-10,000 yeedola kumntu ngamnye ukuphendula ubunzima obunxulumene ne-COVID, kwaye mhlawumbi kwixesha elide uxolele onke amatyala anxulumene nezifundo zesidanga sokuqala ukusuka kwisibini kunye nesine- unyaka kwiikholeji zikawonke-wonke kunye neeyunivesithi zabanini-matyala abarhola ukuya kuthi ga kwi-125,000 yeedola.
Ngoku kunanini na ngaphambili, kubonakala ngathi kukho isiqabu.
Ngaba benisazi ukuba nina nobabini niyatshata, uya kulidla ilifa ityala lemali mboleko yomfundi? umhlobo wam uxelele iqabane lam kunye nam ngesidlo sasemini njengoko sasixoxa ngeethiyori zokupheliswa kwamatyala. Sayihleka ke ngelo xesha, kodwa ndandingakwazi ukuzibamba iintloni ezazidlula emithanjeni yam.
Iphulo lokujongana nengxaki yamatyala abafundi libizwa ngokuba luxolelo lwamatyala omfundi. Ukuxolelwa kuthetha isono okanye isikreqo — ulwimi lodwa lubangela ihlazo, ukumema isigwebo sabagxeki abasichasayo eso siphakamiso . Ukungazi kwiindlela zokuphanga ze izikim zemali-mboleko yabafundi , ndazibeka ityala ngengxaki yam kangangeminyaka emininzi.
Hi ke, ukuba sithe, endaweni yokukholwa yintsomi, sinetyala? U-Astra Taylor wabhala kwiNew Yorker , nathi sazibona singabatyalwayo—njengabantu abafanelwe bubomi obundilisekileyo, obunqabisekileyo nobunempumelelo? Kuthekani ukuba uluntu lwethu ngokwenene lusityala ubomi obulinganayo sonke?
Utata akazange afumane ngaphezu kwemfundo yamabanga aphantsi. Kwiminyaka eyi-10, uyise wamkhupha esikolweni ukuba asebenze njengomthengisi ophethe iimpahla ezinkulu ezifana nerayisi, umgubo kunye neziqhamo e-Ecuador. Undifundise ubugcisa bokubalisa amabali ngesithethe somlomo - nangona wayekugqala ukubhala njengelungelo elikhethekileyo esasingenakulifikelela.
Nokuba umthetho wokuxolelwa kwamatyala omfundi uyaphumelela okanye hayi, ndiwunikezele kum. Imfundo lilungelo lomntu - kunye ne-45 yezigidi zaseMelika, ukuphishekela ukufikelela kuyo nayiphi na indlela eyimfuneko ayifuni ngcaciso okanye uxolo, ifuna isisombululo kunye nendlela elinganayo kubo bonke.
