Full Description
"If you are scratching your head as to how radicals could have seized control in Washington, and of American media, while defaming American democracy as a 'white supremacist' nightmare, look no further than the left's transformation of American universities into ideological boot camps for Marxist treachery. Brutal Minds is a model of clarity and straight talk about this national tragedy, whose destructive energies have yet to run their course." —DAVID HOROWITZ, Bestselling Author of Final Battle
Much of university life is controlled by subsidized paranoiacs, amateur psychotherapists, neo-Marxist totalitarians, "student affairs professionals" imbued with authoritarian mentality, and racialist thought reformers who run workshops that destroy family ties and traditional beliefs to clear the way for new relationships grounded in racialist ideology. These are the brutal minds who threaten and abuse students in the name of an academic fraud called "antiracist pedagogy."
In Brutal Minds, award-winning professor Stanley K. Ridgley exposes the dangers of radicalization, cancel culture, academic censorship, and the growing influence of socialists "boldly transforming" colleges across the country into reeducation camps of dull conformity.
An educational charade masks activities and ideology as dangerous as those that inspired Communist China's tragic Cultural Revolution. This book strips away the façade of the modern American university to reveal the malignant bureaucratic viscera inside the institution. It is a dark world, an anti-intellectualist sanctuary where brutal minds find purpose, protection, camaraderie, subsidy, and power.
Dr. Ridgley's book calls us to action to halt this anti-intellectual takeover of higher education and to restore the greatness of one of Western civilization's most brilliant creations, the American University.
"A tale of how one of history's great institutions—the American university—is undergoing an infiltration by an army of mediocrities whose goal is to destroy it as an institution of knowledge creation and replace it with an authoritarian organ of ideology and propaganda."
