Before government schools, America had 95% literacy. Now it’s 35%. What if everything you’ve been told about “fixing” education is actually designed to make it worse? Robert Bortins, the CEO of Classical Conversations, teams up with award-winning journalist and CEO of Liberty Sentinel, Alex Newman, to announce their explosive new book, “Woke and Weaponized”—a deep dive into how Karl Marx’s ideas infiltrated American education and what parents can do about it.
