LZ Granderson: Why is the right so dedicated to fighting culture wars and education? LZ: How should we on the left be responding to those right wing attacks as we fight to transform the entire higher educational system. LZ: The virulence with which right-wing politicians want to fight against the mere existence of, you know, CRT or queer studies or black studies doesn't seem to work in midterms. But I think it does still suggest some important radical potential that's contained within these forms of learning.
Featuring Dennis Hogan on the crisis in higher education. The first in a two-part series. Next up: Donna Murch and Todd Wolfson on how university workers can fight back through industrial unionism.
