Finally, a book on education that is definitely not boring. A refreshing discussion of the events and social issues which have had an influence on American education. It takes you places where nobody else will dare go. Exposes the destructive influence that "cancel culuture", "critical race theory" and "wokeism" have had on our public schools. Well researched and teeming with facts. Amazing account of the transformation of our public schools spanning a seventy-year period. Very anecdotal in many instances based on the author's personal experiences as a student, teacher, and advocate for better schools. A must read !
