Political Conflict in Schools: Book Banning, Vouchers, and Religious Influence

The chapter explores the contentious issue of political conflict within schools, examining the implications of book banning, privatization through vouchers, and the rise of religious academies receiving public funds. It delves into specific cases like Louisiana's display of the Ten Commandments and insights from North Carolina on the impact of voucher schools demanding proof of speaking in tongues. The conversation also addresses the dynamics of charter schools, vouchers, parental rights debates, and the historical context of school conflicts in the United States.
