Summary

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Episode 78 Critical Education Theory Series, Part 14 We spend a lot of time talking about the Woke Marxification of North America's public schools, but what about private schools? As many who send their kids there can tell you, they're just as Woke, if not Woker. Critical Education Theorists (Critical Pedagogs) have not ignored private schools, just like they haven't ignored elite private universities that these schools primarily service, but how do they really think about them? In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, James Lindsay reads through a recent academic paper (http://www.criticaleducationnetwork.net/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/RCP_Feb2022_SusannahE.Livingston.pdf) regarding bringing Freirean and Leninist Critical Pedagogy into NAIS-certified private schools, and what is written by Susannah Livingston, recent graduate of GCAS (https://gcas.ie/)(Global Centre for Advanced Studies and teacher at an expensive private school in New York City, an explicitly neo-Marxist certification mill) is shocking. Join him to learn what elite parents are paying $40,000, sometimes $50,000 a year to subject their children to.

0:00.0	Hello everyone, it's James Lindsay, you're listening to The New Discourse's podcast.
0:24.9	We're still talking about education and education theory, critical education theory,
0:29.6	specifically critical pedagogy as it were, and this series is going to go on for a while.
0:37.2	This is a pretty wild little paper somebody sent me.
0:39.6	I don't think this is in a very important journal.
0:43.2	It's in a journal called RCP rethinking critical pedagogy because Marxists are constantly
0:48.3	rethinking every bit of their nonsense, aren't they?
0:51.3	This paper is from this year, 2022, it's by Susanna E. Livingston at the Global Center
0:59.0	for Advanced Studies, College Dublin, Ireland.
1:03.8	The title of the paper is The Politics of Liberation and Love in privileged classrooms, and
1:09.4	as a matter of fact, what this episode is going to do is show you what it looks like.
1:14.7	First of all, their crazy mentality.
1:16.5	Second of all, that Paulo Freire is the model.
1:19.7	Third of all, this is explicitly Marxist.
1:22.2	And fourth of all, that this is how they target so-called privileged kids in private schools.
1:27.4	So in other words, what this woman's actually, for what I understand, somehow relevant
1:33.5	in the NAIS, the National Association of Independent Schools, which is the national organization
1:39.4	of what we would think of as the private schools in this country, and part of the reason
1:43.8	why, not this woman, but the NAIS being super woke is part of the reason why private schools
1:50.7	are at least as woke if not more woke than the public schools, which is really saying
1:56.2	something.
1:58.0	And another part of that reason, there are a few.
