Ward Churchill; Voice of the Angry Left

Two articles on an unpleasant subject

Roger Kimball offers a few items on the continuing story of Ward Churchill. Mr. Kimball argues that Churchill is but a symptom of a much deeper disease which has overtaken the modern American university. The Angry Left has made academia its home and has transformed it from an institution of learning and scholarship into one of political indoctrination. Thus it is now all but impossible to find any ideas on the modern college campus which might challenge liberal-leftist orthodoxy. Universities are now re-education camps which attempt to spread the doctrines of the left to the next generation of students. Ideas, debate and intellectual curiosity are things of the past which stand in the way of the Great Socialist Utopia that the left still dreams of bringing to pass.

And Mr. Kimball also takes a look at the many connections within leftist groups and how they are funding all of this to make sure it continues. The amount of money which is dumped into the leftist rat hole is not small by any measure. The task of brainwashing the young is well funded indeed.
