    This series will focus on Samuel L. Blumenfeld's NEA TROJAN HORSE IN AMERICAN EDUCATION (1984).  I cannot write that enough... this book was published in 1984.  What does the American Education system look like 38 years after the publication of this seminal work?  Frankly -- a little known work.  If I had read this book in 1989, I wonder how I would have felt about the American Education and / or the National Education Association?

    There are a total of twenty-one chapters, and I will go through all 21 chapters.  A chapter an episode / week.  Please, do what you can to share this podcast with your friends and other important people!!   

    Here are several titles of upcoming chapters:
    Five - TURNING CHILDREN INTO ANIMALS
    Seven - THE PROGRESSIVES TAKE OVER THE NEA
    Nine - THE BIGGEST LOBBY IN WASHINGTON
    Twelve - THE NEA HELPS PROMOTE FUNCTIONAL ILLITERACY
    Thirteen - THE SOVIET CONNECTION
    Seventeen - RADICALISM AND THE NEA
    Twenty - THE HUMANIST CURRICULUM.

    From 1989-2021, I taught high school music.  Three of those years, I was at a private school!  I have an understanding what the American Education has morphed into and now I have one idea (NEA TROJAN HORSE IN AMERICAN EDUCATION) how the American Education system is where it is today.   

    Teachers who actually will listen to this series, THANK YOU!  There will be many parts of the book that will challenge you.  Challenge you on ... what a load of crap Blumenfeld is or my goodness... I KNOW THIS IS HAPPENING TODAY and it was happening in 1984 and it is still happening over 38 years later?!

    Please consider giving the book a chance.  Learn where the angst towards the teachers / American Education System is coming from.  This book helps give an explanation for the angst.

About Band2Gether

From the publisher's feed

My main focus is education - public / charter / private.  Mostly K-12 with a hint of college / university.  I also will discuss issues relating to "the family."  I am concerned about how one-sided education has become since the government has a strong-hold on the schools.
