Kirby, Jr. Center for Constitutional Studies and Citizenship on Hillsdale’s Washington, D.C. campus, as part of the AWC Family Foundation Lecture Series. Complaints by veteran soldiers about younger generations who lack discipline and traditional values are as old as…
Breaking the Spell: A Film Review of ‘Uncle Tom II’
Commentary “Uncle Tom II”—the new film by Executive Producer Larry Elder and Director Justin Malone—opens with a shot of Chad Jackson (proprietor of Chad O. Jackson Plumbing) preparing a plumbing site with an excavator. It’s a beautifully photographed scene of an intensely focused young man operating a complex machine in order to build something. His…
Confucius Institutes 2.0: Chinese Government Money Speaks Loudly
Originally published by Gatestone Institute Commentary In the book “Red Handed,” we meet a remarkable young man named Nathan Law, the Chinese-born, Hong Kong-raised leader of a pro-democracy effort called the “Umbrella Movement,” which protested Beijing’s crackdowns on freedom in Hong Kong. His efforts were brutally crushed by the Chinese government and Nathan Law went to…
High School Tutorial Journal Publishing ‘Killing Wife for Revolution’ Shocks the Public
A state-backed high school recently published a tutorial newspaper containing a story based on the theme “killing wife for the Chinese Communist Revolution.” The extremely distorted values espoused in the lesson sparked public shock. The April 15 issue of the New Curriculum Review, a weekly magazine that provides Chinese language tutoring for high school students, contained…
Parents Against Stupid Stuff
Commentary Adults deciding where to settle and raise their families once considered tax rates, job opportunities, and housing prices. Now they also have to ask themselves whether they want their children in schools that push gender fluidity, teach masturbation, and provide tampons in the boys’ room for females transitioning to become males. Several states have…
How Children Become Progressives
Commentary How are progressives made? By cooking them in a public school six hours a day, five days a week where they are seemingly indoctrinated with an ideology that contradicts the values and beliefs of many of their parents. It began as a trickle, but now is approaching a flood as activist groups—notably LGBTQ organizations—have…
Biden Says Kids Belong to Their Teachers
Commentary Schools are becoming indoctrination factories, trying to turn children against their country and their own parents’ values. It’s what the teachers unions intend.

Transgender Indoctrination at School and in Kids’ Movies
Commentary Woke corporate CEOs seem to think they know better than voters what’s best for the country. These titans are throwing their companies’ clout and cash behind activists pushing gender-fluidity lessons for kindergarteners and other extreme political causes. Expect this corporate activism to backfire. Corporations should be serving their customers, not trying to override the…
Why Ideology Is the Ancient Enemy of Civilization
Commentary What ultimately destroyed the evil empires of Nazi Germany and Soviet Russia were bankrupt dogmas. Crackpot ideology destroyed free expression. It ruined meritocracy and ensured unequal application of the laws—and so paved the way for far worse. The Nazi idea of a superior Aryan race adjudicated everything from physics to tank design.
