I keep thinking I will print out some of these articles and then send them to my liberral friends but then I never do.
Yes. The unfortunate thing is that the old “great books” courses not only introduced our children to the great thinkers and writers of the past, but to other points of view from our own. We get outside of our narrow cultural assumptions by reading the Bible, Homer, Virgil, Sophocles, Dante, Shakespeare, and the rest.
And in those days people also read the stories of Aladdin, Kim, the Jungle Books, and other works that gave us still more views from the “other’s” point of view. Not to speak of the great books of other cultures, such as The Tale of Genji or the Journey to the West.
Now students are introduced to the “other” by reading a load of second-rate schock advocating feminism, gender bending, and racist victimology. Which is to say that the dominant brain washers in the academy give them repeated doses of their own narrow ideology, endlessly repeated, so they get no other viewpoints at all.
