The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Episode 77 Critical Education Theory Series, Part 13 A common term of art in the current educational milieu is racial literacy. In fact, here is the giant and influential educational company Pollyanna, Inc., talking about how central racial literacy is (https://pollyannainc.org/k-8-curriculum/) to their K-8 education programs. What is racial literacy, though? As you will not be surprised to learn, it is the racial repackaging of Marxist education Theorist Paulo Freire's critical literacy model using Race Marxism (Critical Race Theory) in place of Critical Marxism (Critical Theory, or neo-Marxism). In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, James Lindsay explores racial literacy in the words of two of its own scholars, making clear how shoddy their so-called "research" really is, at bottom, and that, in fact, "racial literacy" means the priority of the Race Marxification of education, which merely takes Freire's Marxist education project (Critical Pedagogy) one step further. Join him to gain the confidence you need to understand this concept and push back against it when you see it in your kids' schools.

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Episode 90 Critical Education Theory Series, Part 20 This episode of the New Discourses Podcast continues a long miniseries exploring Paulo Freire’s landmark 1985 book The Politics of Education: Culture, Power, and Liberation (https://amzn.to/3IJ4ZOT), and it is embedded in the broader Critical Education Theory series (https://newdiscourses.com/tag/critical-education-theory/). In the previous part, James Lindsay presented the ideas in the ninth chapter of that book, where Freire outlines that the purpose of education is to humanize Man and the world, exactly as indicated by Karl Marx. The previous parts of this series, covering the earlier chapters of the book can be found here: Part 1: https://newdiscourses.com/2022/04/paulo-freires-politics-of-education/ Part 2: https://newdiscourses.com/2022/04/paulo-freire-educating-to-proclaim-the-world/ Part 3: https://newdiscourses.com/2022/04/social-work-education/ Part 4: https://newdiscourses.com/2022/05/paulo-freire-birth-of-groomer-schools/ Part 5: https://newdiscourses.com/2022/07/paulo-freires-perpetual-cultural-revolution/ Part 6: https://newdiscourses.com/2022/07/paulo-freire-and-learning-to-remake-man/ Part 7: https://newdiscourses.com/2022/08/paulo-freire-and-the-critical-theft-of-education/ In this episode, the last in the formal educational series covering this book, James takes up the first part of the very weird tenth chapter of The Politics of Education, wherein Freire discusses Liberation Theology and the Role of the Church as a parallel educational institution. In this first part of this shocking chapter, before turning to the role he envisions for churches, Freire explains the religious conversion educators must go through in order to be "true" educators. He describes it as a process of spiritual death and rebirth, literally an Easter educators and religious leaders must go through to be resurrected on the side of the oppressed. This is the religious heart of the so-called "pedagogy of the oppressed" at the center of Freire's entire project and legacy. Join James to understand how Freire enabled the theft of education so that it could be transformed into religious education for the Theology of Marxism (https://newdiscourses.com/2022/01/theology-marxism/).

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Episode 91 The churches are under attack, not just from without but also from within. Marxist subversion has been brought deeply into them, and they are already falling. The model for how this is being accomplished mirrors the model used to steal education, so it's little surprise that the Brazilian Marxist educator Paulo Freire is at the bottom of it. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay picks up out of the Critical Education Series (https://newdiscourses.com/tag/critical-education-theory/) in which he has been reading most of Freire's landmark 1985 book, The Politics of Education: Culture, Power, and Liberation (https://amzn.to/3IJ4ZOT). Here, he presents the last two thirds of the tenth chapter of that book, which is dedicated not to education at all but to seeing churches as educational platforms that can be utilized in the same way as schools to raise Marxist consciousness. The model is simple: capture the colleges of education and seminaries and you get the teachers and the pastors, and once you have them you get the students and the laity. Join James to understand the goal of transforming the Christian churches in theory, practice, and agenda in this gripping podcast that exposes the roots and implementation of a devastating Marxist rot in mainline Christianity and thus the chief heresy of the twenty-first century.

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Episode 92 We have to talk about Social-Emotional Learning (SEL). It's not the first time it's been addressed here on the New Discourses Podcast, but the full picture hasn't been painted for you yet. Social-Emotional Learning is evil and must be stopped. It isn't a nice little program to help at-risk kids deal with the difficulties of learning. It's the central pillar of a nefarious attempt to remake and control society. Host James Lindsay walks you through a number of sources promoting and describing Social-Emotional Learning in unprecedented depth, breadth, and clarity in this long but crucial episode of the podcast. Join him to understand why Social-Emotional Learning and the mechanisms that enable it must be removed from our schools as soon as possible and the people who have implemented it need to be investigated and held accountable.

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 71 It's time to start winning. That requires knowing our enemy, which we're doing pretty well with, getting organized, and enacting a strategy to consolidate power for the Cause of Liberty to save our schools, towns, states, and nations. The strategy is actually pretty simple, though, and it's organizing to create a positive feedback loop between recruiting numbers, identifying and achieving specific objectives, and building and channeling momentum (including into fundraising). This is less hard than it sounds, even in deeply embattled areas. The strategy is simple: get some numbers and recruit around the idea of getting enough numbers to take over some small local thing, ideally within the Republican Party, to get it under your control. Make sure it's an achievable goal, then drive to achieve it. When you achieve it, turn the victory into momentum to go after the next target. Recruit on the success and to the need of achieving the next goals. Then just keep repeating! In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay breaks down this community organizing 101 for conservatives. Join him and get back on the field to start taking back ground!
