Recenzje

As the ginned up education panic intensifies across the nation, Bradford Vivian counters the propaganda with a calm and rational assessment of actually existing higher education practices. Vivian shows how the common tropes of the education panic do not accurately reflect the reality at American colleges and universities and how the controversies over free speech, diversity, and critical race theory are part of an authoritarian power grab to control higher education."
