Summary
“Any parent who doesn’t recognize that they’re on a battlefield, that their children are ground zero in this effort, is going to lose…Collectivists are trying to co-opt and change the minds of our children,” says Connor Boyack.
He’s the author of the Tuttle Twins children’s books, which have sold over 4 million copies. He recently released “America’s History,” a new Tuttle Twins story-based textbook. At a time when revisionist history runs rampant, it offers an honest look at American history.
“Give our kid a shield and a sword before we send them out into the intellectual battlefield. Give them a foundation of these ideas [so] that when they’re listening to their teacher or reading a textbook or looking at TikTok…they can evaluate those ideas, rather than just absorb them like a sponge,” Boyack says.
