New Culture Forum
"Having the deeper discussions mainstream media won't provide."
Founded in 2006, the NCF is one of Britain's leading conservative think tanks. Our mission is to challenge the cultural orthodoxies dominant in our institutions, public life and wider culture.
So What You're Saying Is... (#SWYSI) is our weekly interview programme, NewSpeak is our weekly "in-house" discussion show, and CounterCulture is our panel discussion with experts and significant figures from the political, cultural and academic worlds.
Our goal is to provide what the MSM won't: a platform for leading voices & experts from politics, culture, academia etc. to engage in calm, constructive and enlightening discussions on the most critical issues of today.

Book description: "There is a war on for your mind. You may not notice, but you are surrounded by manipulators: advertisers, politicians, big tech, even the humble waiter who asks, ‘Still or sparkling?’
"Free Your Mind is your field manual to surviving the information battlefield.

The Outside Groups Teaching YOUR Children Race Ideology & White Privilege
On this week's #NCFWhittle we are joined by Alka Sehgal Cuthbert, Director of "Don't Divide Us - The UK's Common Sense Voice on Race". She discusses a new report by "Don't Divide Us" which exposes the third-party organisations that are promoting radical political beliefs in schools through EDI provision.
Beliefs such as:
* Britain is an institutionally racist country due to a selective account of its past
* White people are privileged
* Black people can only succeed if white people make space for them
* Colour-blind approaches to inequality are not respectable beliefs
* Impartiality in schools is a problem
She argues that these groups operate in ways that avoid public accountability, political responsibility, and have very little basis in established academic/educational sources of authority. Any government that takes democracy, freedom of speech and tolerance seriously also needs to take education seriously.
