Mr. Rogers Saves PBS

I don’t intend to make this into a place to just repost youtube clips, but I’d never seen this, and I think it deserves to be spread. Maybe it’s just the fact that I was a child of the 80s and grew up with Mr. Rogers and all of those other apparently politically incorrect childhood programs from that time period.

Horowitz Strikes Again

It would seem that David Horowitz has been targeting UT in his “Academic Freedom” Campaign. More to come on this later, as I’ll probably writing a small paper on the topic.

From the article:

“The idea that gender structures society is an ideological claim, not a program for scholarly investigation. This claim is the organizing principle of gender feminism, a radical sect of the broader movement. Not surprisingly, the reading lists for courses in the department are almost exclusively drawn from radical feminist texts.”

Gender impacts society? Radical thinking indeed.
