Very interesting to learn about the classroom dynamics. Your student’s comment says much (not good) about the current state of affairs. Given how slick and convincing mainstream channels can be in presenting ideas via pop culture, it really is unfortunate there’s so much that can’t be discussed openly. It’s one less opportunity to question and critique, which might help someone reach a conclusion that differs from the angle the mainstream is pushing.
Great video choice; powerful start (and end) with how the Bell Curve fits into it. Can’t lie, I was kind of cringing at the thought of sitting down to dinner with author. Hats off to this young man.
