Ayers asked the question; who am I in the world and does it have to be this way? I think that on the surface it seems like fairly easy/ unassuming questions for students to ask But the main concern is what is the Ayer's motive or agenda for asking them While it is good, and we do want children to question who they are in the world and their life's purpose; I don't think that is what Ayers is trying to get at With his assumption that he lives in a democracy (America is a Republic NOT a democracy) Ayers seems to ask the questions from an entitled stance I think he is really asking; which box do I fit in society from a historical sense, and what can I get out of it? Ayers questions do not further personal growth but guides children to think more selfishly These questions also subtly undermine the parents/families duty and right to create a stable identity Ayers assumes that the school system/government know what is best and should be the guiding force in forming the child's identity brIs it any wonder that about ten years later children who have grown up with that kind of teaching are more unstable, less grounded and plagued with anxiety? I am grieved when I think of all the hundreds of mindless teachers who have followed Ayers dangerous advice and destroyed the lives of countless children How many more school shooting will there need to be for people to realize that a school is an institution designed for knowledge consumption not character/identity/daily life/moral development Those things develop at home with people who actually love you, not teachers who are paid to spend time with youbrAlso see Dinesh D'Souza's Hilary's America for more information on the civil right movement

Teaching in a Democracy? I thought we were a Republic not a Democracy As John Adams said "Remember, democracy never lasts long It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself" or "Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote!" Benjamin Franklin

@dannyg120 It wasn't "seed information" it was bald-faced lies What I state isn't "a basis in reality", it is reality I've read a GREAT DEAL of history, am well aware of how bad things were in the nations you mention Please, if you want to blame Communism, tell me on what page of the Manifesto you find gulags You cannot blame the deaths on Communism
Comment from : @PrisonerNumber9653

So to be more outraged at Nixon's murder of hundreds of thousands than Ayers' killing NOBODY isn't reality? Interesting I'm not Communist, but NONE of those deaths or brutal regimes were caused by Marxism On what page of the Manifesto are gulags advocated?
Comment from : @PrisonerNumber9653

@dannyg120 Now, I am NOT agreeing with everything that was done, or said, at the time, which I'll remind you was FORTY FUCKING YEARS AGO, but to pretend these were "the bad guys" is hysteria The bad guys were Nixon and his gang
Comment from : @PrisonerNumber9653

@dannyg120 I've done a great deal of reading Bernadine is NOT "disgusting" in any way The vile BASTARDS from the FBI were the true criminals There was NOT any plan to kill people, but AGAIN--why are you NOT going after the ones who murdered hundreds of thousands in Vietnam? He's not a "terrorist", and he was hired because he's a very good teacher Criticize away, but try to get some facts instead of just swallowing whatever lies get told you Gathwohl and his ilk have zero credibility

@MegaRightisright Pinko? Wow, and you thought McCarthyism was from the 50s??
Comment from : @PrisonerNumber9653

Cognitive dissonance is an uncomfortable feeling caused by holding conflicting ideas simultaneously The theory of cognitive dissonance proposes that people have a motivational drive to reduce dissonance They do this by changing their attitudes, beliefs, and actions or by justifying, blaming, and denying the causal agent Instead of posting comments that ammount to name calling why haven't any of you 'defenders of 'merica' responded to the point Ayers is making in this video?
Comment from : @romand123

Comment from : @wattyofthewattykins

Teacher johnk42, Teens struggle to divide 8 into 50, but it's okay, they have calculators You need a translator to figure out what they've written, but it's okay, they have keyboards It takes 10 minutes to read a short paragraph, but it's okay, lots of pictures on the internet They aren't motivated to achieve because they've been indoctrinated with anti-American BS What's a kid to do? Reproduce, escape into drugs 'n alcohol and let 'the corrupt system' support 'em? Sounds familiar
Comment from : @Boris82much

Ayers no longer blows up buildings; he simply 'terrorizes' the young with his liberal goofiness and indocrination Chicago, of course, is among the leaders in murder/crime/dysfunction THIS is why people questioned Obama's judgement NOT because he 'palled around with a terrorist (Ayers)' when he was 9but because he was sympathetic enough with Ayer's current left-wing worldview that is part and parcel of the Chicago school system and political climate what an absolute shame
Comment from : @johnlorican

Very well articulated problem of America and the education system, including the media Not real encouragement to think for ones self More like here is the world, and here you are in it and that is that He refers to black education I think here, but the problem is very deep and fully inclusive Very little encouragement of conscience thinking And it is only through new ideas that the world may change toward more enlightenment
Comment from : @desertblbuesman

we'll see
Comment from : @mrhughes00

The Left has finally found the ideal Presidential Candidate in Obama So sad to see how the people doesn't want to look in his background, they are about to commit the biggest mistake in modern politics If Obama gets elected, people will regret it after 2 yrs, currently he says what the people wants to hear Once he gets elected, he will do extreme changes at the Educational, Social and Economical Levels Castro, Chavez and ACORN will become regular visitors of the White House
Comment from : @garciadelacadena

oh, get in line behind your wife and i'll be right with ya
Comment from : @mrhughes00

And yet he has spoken in Venezuela about education being a revolutionary tool wonder what he promoted while he was involved in the Chicago Annenberg Challenge (CAC) with all those millions at his fingertips 49 million, to be exact filtered to him and his family by none other than Barack Obama, who was in charge of the finances for CAC Bernadine Dohrn worked at the same law firm ad Obama's wife, Michelle Dohrn was also was involved in an org that benefitted from CAC funds Cozy, huh?
