Major changes on what we teach kids are taking place: from white privilege, to subliminal racism; from gender studies in the first grade, to the decimation of biological sciences in high school; from the reordering of American history, to the rethinking of American core social, cultural, and political values; from the compulsory study of social justice principles, to the dismissal of free speech, the nuclear family, and American sovereigntyas outdated, outmoded, and out of touch. This book delves into what is being taught in schools today and why.
This book draws peoples attention to a war on capitalism being raged not on the battlefield but in our public schools. I am wondering when the acknowledgement of the patriotism and the appreciation of the wonderful diverse opportunities that America has to offer were dropped from the curriculum in our trusted public schools. I would like to praise the courage of this author for his brilliant depiction of something that really needs to be brought to our attention. -- David Yungman, a California Parent
Abraham Lincoln united this country and Ronald Reagan endured it. The Union was good, and a melting pot was defined. Colors were only visual perceptions. Until America became vulnerable in the early 2010's from the invasion of the Millennials hitting adolescence. This generation worships a woke culture created by an imaginary ideology that was hallucinated by angry politicians. -- Henry Tran, California State University Northridge, Lecturer, Department of Marketing
