GLB LIVE WITH FRIENDS

In the movie Higher Learning, the idea of “stealing the information” isn’t about physically stealing books or breaking into offices. It’s more symbolic and political.

The phrase reflects a mindset expressed by some of the radical student characters — especially those influenced by Black nationalist ideology. What they mean is:

1. Taking Back Knowledge

They believe institutions (like universities) were historically built on systems that excluded or oppressed Black people and other minorities. So “stealing the information” means:
• Gaining access to education that was once denied
• Learning the system from the inside
• Using that knowledge as power

2. Education as Power

In the film, knowledge is shown as a tool. By mastering it, students can:
• Understand how systems of racism operate
• Navigate or challenge power structures
• Uplift their communities

So instead of rejecting education, the message is:
Get the education — even if the system wasn’t designed for you — and use it strategically.

3. Radical Framing

The language sounds militant on purpose. The film, directed by John Singleton, explores how young people respond differently to racial tension — some through activism, some through extremism, some through assimilation. The “steal the information” line reflects a more militant perspective about reclaiming power through knowledge.
