  • The WallBuilders Show - What Happens When A Nation Can’t Read Its Past

    Cursive is being called a “new language” by students and it says a lot about where our schools have been and where they may finally be heading. We dig into why states are bringing cursive writing back, not as a nostalgia project, but because real life still requires signatures, contracts, and the ability to read original sources. We also talk about the surprising research angle: cursive practice can support fine motor skills, memory, language development, and even help flag learning challenges earlier.

    Then we jump to a major legal and cultural flashpoint in Texas: a court fight over Ten Commandments posters in public school classrooms tied to Texas Senate Bill 10. We walk through the arguments being used, why a judge denies a temporary hold, and why the history matters more than most headlines admit. From the founding era through classic textbooks, the Ten Commandments have been referenced as part of moral law and civic education, and the debate forces a deeper look at what people mean when they invoke “separation of church and state.”

    We wrap with a string of timely updates: Glenn Beck’s Ellis Island painting story that spotlights the American dream, a planned rule to end federal Medicaid and CHIP funding for gender transition medical care for minors, and a new military fitness approach using a waist-to-height ratio standard aimed at readiness and health. If you care about education policy, constitutional history, religious liberty, and protecting kids, there’s a lot here to think about.
