As a teacher, I saw a political movement taking shape via American schools, one contrary to everything that the country supported.
The average student reminds us daily of the failures of the educational system. Many of them, because of academic neglect, become functional illiterates, dropouts, and even angry young men and women who have learned nothing of value during their school years.
Those in doubt should wander into the “better” schools where our privileged youth escape academic boredom with drugs; converse with high school and college students on important subjects and listen to them utter nonsense which they are incapable of defending rationally; observe their activities and how they are being conditioned to measure their self-worth with destructive acts to gain peer acceptance; familiarize yourself with what they enjoy and whom they idolize; and finally, study the syllabi and then ask educators how they justify the nonsensical content.
