The aim isn’t just to change what gets taught but to transform how we understand ourselves, the public realm, and the common good.
Yup
Step 1: Lie about people doing some horrific thing
Step 2: Do the horrific thing yourself
Step 3: claim it was necessary because other people did it first
I wish the schools had that much influence over my kid. Maybe he’d turn in his homework on time.
Will any colleges even accept a Prager U education?
Notice they never explicitly call themselves a University. That's because they aren't one.
I believe I read that they were sued to stop using the name Prager University as it was considered false advertising, so in typical conservative fashion they grifted long enough to get their name out there and then just hoped no one would notice.
yes, prager university
I had a business professor sneak this bullshit into their class once.
It's definitely in colleges
Liberty I'm sure does.
Prager U invested A LOT of money in making kids content specifically because they’re younger generations see through their bullshit.
If we are going to exist as a nation, there are beliefs and stories we need to share. And, historically, our public schools have been the chief mechanism for ensuring common ground.

Wow that's some "grasping at any straw possible" type of journalism.

Is it? It seems pretty consistent with their everlasting desire for school vouchers to subsidize private/religious schools.
PragerU is in classrooms?!?
According to this article, maybe 1% of classrooms in states where it's approved for use. Not a lot of educators find the content to be educational.
