Government and Politics Taught in School? Too Controversial, or Necessary for a More Informed Youth? | Fireside Chats with Shreya Mehta

This Friday on Fine Print, we commence our new series, Fireside Chats, and welcome our guest, Shreya Mehta. Shreya is a rising high school senior who joins us on our episode about whether or not politics should be taught in schools. We spoke extensively about whether or not schools are the right place to teach politics, who is and is not qualified to teach politics, how schools can make politics a less taboo topic, and what parents can do to ensure that their children are well educated voters without presenting bias. If you are someone who is either about to qualify to vote, or will qualify in a few years, or if you are a parent to a teenager who will be entering the world of American politics soon, this episode is just for you. Tune into our engaging conversation, only on Fine Print.
