America's Dangerous Repeat of the Chinese Cultural Revolution | Mike Zhao

Welcome to a new series of the Dissidents Podcast with your co-hosts, Jennifer Richmond and Brandy Shufutinsky. In this series we explore the radical roots of liberated ethnic studies, how extreme ideology is infiltrating our schools with the aim to indoctrinate instead of educate, and our search for solutions to empower parents, teachers and students, giving them the tools to embrace inquiry and to express their individuality.

This week we speak with the President of the Asian American Coalition for Education, Mike Zhao. Zhao, the author of Critical Race Theory and Woke Culture: America’s Dangerous Repeat of the Chinese Cultural Revolution, shares his personal story of living through the Chinese Cultural Revolution, his eventual immigration to the West, and his alarm at seeing similar Marxist trends infiltrating the American K-12 education system.
