Ep. 143 Politics and thought reform in K-12 education

Are America's schools becoming too political?  FIRE's Director of High School Programs argues, "Yes." Bonnie Kerrigan Snyder is an educator with over 20 years of experience, and she's worried by what she sees. Amidst controversies surrounding so-called critical race theory, school walkouts, and standardized tests, Snyder increasingly hears reports of children "being indoctrinated, bullied, and harassed by their fellow students and teachers for not falling into line on various topics." On today's episode of So to Speak: The Free Speech Podcast, we discuss Snyder's new book, "Undoctrinate: How Politicized Classrooms Harm Kids and Ruin Our Schools—And What We Can Do About It."
