THE GREAT CURRICULUM CON -How Elite Universities Spent Decades Experimenting on America’s Children

from Zero Subscribers · host Steve Sullivan

New York City just returned to phonics — the same method it abandoned forty years ago under pressure from academic theorists. This episode breaks down how elite education schools drove a decades-long experiment on America’s children, why equity was used to justify lowering standards for everyone, and why the students who could least afford to fail were the ones who got hurt most.
