The Woke Warpath explores the intersection of Marxism and postmodernism, particularly in how these ideologies are used to shape race and gender narratives in America. The book delves into the ways these ideologies are implemented in educational settings and their broader societal impacts.
The Critical Turn in Education explores the evolution of critical theories in education, from Marxist critiques to poststructuralist feminism and critical race theories. It provides a nuanced understanding of how these theories have shaped educational scholarship and practice over time. The book examines key figures such as Paulo Freire, Samuel Bowles, and Henry Giroux, and discusses the impact of postmodernism and poststructuralism on educational thought.
This book provides a foundational understanding of Critical Race Theory, discussing its core tenets such as systemic racism, intersectionality, and the social construction of race. It also addresses critiques and applications of CRT in various fields like law, education, and psychology. The authors, Richard Delgado and Jean Stefancic, are prominent figures in the CRT movement.
In 'Mapping the Margins,' Kimberlé Crenshaw explores how race and gender intersect to exacerbate violence against women of color, critiquing both feminist and anti-racist movements for overlooking these intersections. The book is a foundational text in understanding intersectionality and its role in identity politics.
Karl Marx's Economic and Philosophic Manuscripts of 1844 are a collection of writings that explore the nature of alienation, private property, and communism. These essays delve into Marx's early critique of capitalism, focusing on the dehumanizing effects of industrial labor. He examines how capitalism alienates workers from their labor, the products of their labor, their fellow workers, and ultimately, themselves. Marx's analysis lays the groundwork for his later, more mature works, such as Das Kapital. The manuscripts offer a profound and enduring critique of the social and economic structures of capitalism.
This book, first published in 1961, is an analysis of the experiences of fifteen Chinese citizens and twenty-five Westerners who underwent brainwashing by the Chinese Communist government. Lifton outlines eight criteria for thought reform, including Milieu Control, Mystical Manipulation, Demand for Purity, Confession, Sacred Science, Loading the Language, Doctrine over person, and Dispensing of existence. The book explores the thematic pattern of death and rebirth, accompanied by feelings of guilt, that characterizes the process of thought reform and discusses its broader implications for the study of extremism and totalism.
In 'Gender Trouble,' Judith Butler challenges traditional notions of gender and sex, arguing that gender is not an innate or natural aspect of human identity but rather a social construct that is performed and reinforced through societal norms and behaviors. Butler distinguishes between sex, which refers to biological traits, and gender, which is a constructed category. She introduces the concept of 'performativity,' suggesting that gender is created through repeated actions and performances. The book critiques the binary gender system and explores how non-normative sexual practices and identities can subvert and challenge traditional gender categories. Butler's work has been influential in feminist theory, queer theory, and LGBTQ activism, and continues to be a foundational text in gender studies.
Demons, also known as The Possessed or The Devils, is a novel that critiques the political and moral nihilism prevalent in Russia during the 1860s. The story is set in a fictional town that descends into chaos due to an attempted revolution orchestrated by Pyotr Verkhovensky. The novel focuses on Nikolai Stavrogin, a mysterious and charismatic figure, and explores themes of ideology, murder, and the psychological and moral implications of atheism. It was inspired by a real political murder in 1869 and combines elements of satire, philosophical inquiry, and psychological insight to depict how destructive ideas can influence individuals and society[2][3][5].
Dr. Jordan B. Peterson sits down with author, speaker, and founder of ItsNotinSchools.com, Logan Lancing. They discuss the deceptive terminology of the postmodern Left and how the linguistic game hides a severe lack of substance, the true heart of Marxism as a theology, the indoctrination of our children at the institutional level, and the sacrifices it will take to truly right the ship.
Logan Lancing is an author, speaker, and the founder of ItsNotinSchools dot com. He is best known for his public lectures on critical race theory, culturally relevant pedagogy, and queer theory. Lancing’s website explains what these “woke” theories are, identifies where they come from, and exposes how they show up in children’s classrooms nationwide.
