Introducing The Marxification of Education

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Episode 102

Education has been stolen from our society and from our kids. This should be intolerable. Doing something about it, as we're learning, requires understanding how this robbery has occurred and how it keeps running. Fortunately, that's comprehensible and can be summarized in a single short sentence: our kids go to Paulo Freire's schools. You may not know who Paulo Freire was, but his theory of education (critical pedagogy, as it came to be called) explains a great deal of what has gone wrong in our schools. To make this subject comprehensible and pull back the veil on Marxist praxis in education over the last fifty years, James Lindsay, host of the New Discourses Podcast, has written a new book called The Marxification of Education: Paulo Freire's Critical Marxism and the Theft of Education (https://amzn.to/3RYZ0tY/ ), which is available now. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, James introduces the book and goes through some selected portions of the text to give you a sense of just how significant this problem is. Join him and grab a copy of the book to learn about how things went so wrong in education!
