Education Quote by Alexis Arguello

“Across the board” is doing a lot of work here: Arguello is trying to turn a scattered collection of famous men into a single, accountable bloc. As an athlete speaking about “these gentlemen,” he’s not just praising peers; he’s quietly drafting them. The phrase assumes a shared membership and a shared duty, the kind of locker-room solidarity that becomes, in public life, a moral ledger. You can almost hear the implied follow-up: if they understand they have power, what excuse is left for staying silent?

The intent is both affirming and corrective. Arguello frames influence as something that can be used “to make a difference” but sharpens it with “even educate people,” a word that nudges celebrity beyond charity and toward consciousness-raising. That “even” signals a cultural expectation gap: audiences will tolerate athletes donating money, but activism that names “injustices” still feels, to many, like mission creep. Arguello is pushing back against that boundary, insisting that visibility isn’t neutral. If you’re watched, you’re already teaching; the only question is what lesson.

The context matters because Arguello wasn’t merely a boxer; he was also a Nicaraguan public figure who moved between sport and politics. Coming from a region shaped by inequality and conflict, “their worlds” reads as plural on purpose: injustice isn’t abstract, and it isn’t one-size-fits-all. He’s arguing for a kind of localized moral clarity, where fame becomes a megaphone not for personal branding, but for naming what people are trained to overlook.
