Peace Corps or Teach America?

For me, this one's easy. Teach America.
Maybe our generation really is the quiet generation and not be active in change, but I would prefer to do Teach America. While I undoubtedly admire those who do join the peace corps, I know it's something that I couldn't do. It is amazing that they go out there and are active in making a difference and helping people, I think it's a great program and wouldn't want our world to be without those people who want to make a difference. For me though, I would rather help from home. I think education is also a really important part of helping change the world we live in. If we can't fix up our problems at home, how can we help the rest of the world? If we have more educated people, then we have more people who can make a difference, because they will understand the problems we face, and not be apathetic and/or ignorant about them. Inequality in education just because of class standing is not fair and I think this is something that we need to address, and Teach America is doing exactly that. I would be happy to share what I've gotten out of my education with others who are less fortunate.
