Explanation:

Bader wrote this interesting quote in her essay, due to the fact that education is the only way to make people aware about the general issues that are of interest for all inhabitants of the world. It is possible to notice how people change their mind about a lot of things when they put an effort in learning about different topics. Through education, it is possible to change people's mind about stereotypes, gender inequality, environmental issues, wars, poverty. And it is not only possible to change their minds towards these kinds of topics, it is also probable that they get interested in a way to help solving these problems in the world.

That is why, in the mentioned quote, it is said that knowledge cannot be removed, because once a person learns about something, it is really hard to ignore it and continue acting the same way.
