It's called cultural transmission. And that's what schools are SUPPOSED to be doing. Instead, they're erasing our history, tearing down our statues and effacing our past. George Orwell said, "The most effective way to destroy a people is to deny and obliterate a consciousness of their history".

A woman of the left, Donella Meadows, wrote a book called "Thinking In Systems". She said that the schools were the DNA of the society. She said, "What is DNA? It is an information transmission system across generations. Academia is the DNA of a society. Change the curriculum and you change the DNA of the civilization".

That's what the left is doing. They no longer teach about George Washington or Thomas Jefferson. Instead you get heaping helpings of Afro-Caribbean figures or Common Core chapters on Gandhi. (Gandhi who, by the way, borrowed the concept of civil disobedience from American Henry David Thoreau and openly said so. But open up a Common Core book and they attribute those ideas to Gandhi and hide that the concepts were American concepts. Their goal is to give credit to the foreigner.)

Universities openly say, "We're not here to teach kids about the past. We're here to turn out change-agents for the future".

Donella Meadows said, "I don't care what you call yourself. If you no longer pass on cultural transmission from the past, you are not a university . . . even if you call yourself one."
