  No I haven’t read anyone of the books. I just want to start a good library for the prisoners so they have something to do besides fight or give guards grief. And if this goes well would like to start a GED program.

    Please read some of the books before you give them away. You have a fair bit to learn about the English language before you should consider teaching it.

      Lol, why the elitism here? It doesn’t seem like OP is trying to do anything bad.

        I don’t think it’s elitist to say that you should read books before you build a library. That’s just good advice. And it’s fair to wonder if someone who cannot string a sentence together reads many books.

        Definitely not being elitist. It is elitist for OP to assume they need to “educate” individuals in jail because they’re a nurse. I’m a social worker and have worked with people of all backgrounds including incarcerated. I’ve learned something from every person I’ve worked with and I only teach things within my scope of expertise.

        They’re looking down on people while using terrible English.
