Just as I mentioned in a previous blog about Joel Kovel, teachers would become targeted, as they did in NAZI Germany, for any possible anti-Americanism by the fascist right. It has now become dangerous for teachers to discuss politics in or outside the classrooms. But just as importantly, teachers have a right as all citizens do to choose a political affiliation without fear of reprisal by their employer or the general public. Indoctrination through fear and denial indeed seems more to be the case in America, than through good faith or social justice and the persuasive measures of our educators. Do you believe in toting the fact-dismissive Nationalist view of history at the cost of contemporary justice? Think hard about that one!
