Very good article. I decided to forward it to my two daughters to share the mirror of what happened from my post-baby boomer generation to missing the post Classic Education forward to the dumb-down millennial to the general X and beyond. Where the the the “dumb down political education agenda”
“…Andrew Carnegie and, Woodrow Wilson, and other people to do two things: [1] train people to become compliant factory workers, sit in straight rows, do what they're told, follow instructions, and [2] to teach kids that the best way to fit in and feel good was to buy stuff and it's done a great job at both those things.”
I am gonna read more of your work. I think I have read two of essays. You seemed to be one that live by “the life of the mind” as bell hooks phrased it.
Where do you find the time and topics of such scope and range with psychology and philosophy to put your spin on it? You must have studied under a master or have the sociological and scientific training and education western scholarship offers, or by your existential experience, friends, students, children, people among other life struggles,challenges, failures, pain etc forward, placing the American propagandized and cultural distractions in a shoe box.
Final thought, I went to your page and decided I will read more of your work, since the resonant from which your work interest and provokes me further, to peruses your anthology.
Yes indeed, my experience with my millennial son... thanks for some suggestions on the way out, but now that he's 33 this year, he has to find his own path, I can no longer even 'prompt concepts'...
