This is what I am looking for. I can share this information with my friends &amp; with my collegues. It grows from the theological idea that human value is a scarce thing, represented symbolically by the narrow peak of a pyramid..<br /> ]]> http://newsociety.com/blogs/index.php/2008/12/15/weapons-of-mass-instruction-a-schoolteac#c494 Wed, 12 May 2010 06:30:31 +0000 Free Coaching Reports [Visitor] c420@http://newsociety.com/blogs/ John Taylor Gatto might have his own point. He was able to put in detail his reasonings. But many have been successful because of school though some are not. <br /> <br />

Tod Slone [Visitor] c98@http://newsociety.com/blogs/ Good text by Gotti. He is certainly on target. I taught full time at a handful of colleges. My colleagues were deplorable (almost every single one of them) in their indifference to democracy and its cornerstone, vigorous debate. Certainly, they must have thought I was a kook because periodically I actually risked my career by standing up on my hind legs to openly criticize them, administrators, and the institutional hands feeding me. I even created a literary journal devoted to criticism of their stats quo. I also worked full time at two all-black HBCUs and found absolutley no difference between black and white colleagues regarding apathy to free speech and vigorous debate. Needless to say, my career is all but dead today. This past month I even interviewed to teach a course I'd created on dissidence and democracy. It was for Tufts University Experimental College. Needless to say, the course was not accepted. http://newsociety.com/blogs/index.php/2008/12/15/weapons-of-mass-instruction-a-schoolteac#c98
