The "Education" System from a Primary Source

If you're interested in the current status of public education and what's entering our colleges and universities today, spend an hour watching to this interview of Dr. Duke Pesta (Professor of English, University of Wisconsin, Oshkosh) by Stefan Molyneux:

UPDATE, 2/30/22 - YouTube cancelled Stefan Molyneaux some time back, so a link to the audio only version of the podcast is HERE.  Pay particular attention at 14:45:

I started giving quizzes to my juniors and seniors before I even passed out the attendance sheet the first day or the syllabus. I gave them a 10-question American history quiz and we started - even though I'm an English professor not an American historian - just to see where they are. And this has been true for seven consecutive years - the vast majority of my students, I'm talking like nine out of ten in every single class, 28, 29 out of 30 kids - they have no idea that slavery existed anywhere in the world before the United States. And I've got Christian kids, I've got Jewish kids. Moses, Pharoh, none of that. They have none of it. They are a hundred percent convinced that slavery is a uniquely American  invention and that with the Emancipation Proclamation slavery ended worldwide. They're convinced of this. How do you give an adequate view of history and culture to kids when that's what they think of their own country? That America invented slavery and and the whole Black Lives Matter movement, which is taught as absolute history in English classes and philosophy classes, in sociology classes and biology classes and race identity classes, that's the new narrative, right?  That even though slavery ended in America it's still with us in the way we oppressed minorities and so that's all they know. They know nothing else.

Sounds pretty familiar, doesn't it?
