#182 Musings Beyond the Bunker (Friday October 29)

Good morning, I’d like to refocus on education. There is so much sturm und drang in California about the ethnic studies curriculum. There are those who seek to make such studies a major part of students’ education. There is no question that we should study the various ethnicities that contribute to our society. But, as is the case with most issues these days, there is considerable controversy regarding the content. Whose ethnicities? Should it be just about the exploitation of ethnic groups? To some, the treatment of slaves and Native Americans condemns the United States to little more than an exploitative power, devoid of moral standing. To others, the American experiment and the extension of self-government, individual rights, and non-State controlled capitalism is the story of the conquering of nature and science to create a great, modern, economic powerhouse that has improved everyone’s lives.
