Bill Ayers On How To Educate Good Little Progressive Commies

Via The Corner:

Reader John Rylanders points Cornerites to this very interesting October 2006 interview of Bill Ayers in Revolution (the self-styled "Voice of the Revolutionary Communist Party, USA")....

...That’s one of the things that’s actually annoyed me for about 40 years of being a progressive educator: the separation of the concept of progressive education from the concept of politics and political change. You can’t separate them.

Remember, Ayers is an education activist, who pushes for progressive programs in public elementary schools in Illinios. He praised the communist dictator Hugo Chaves' education programs in Venezuela. He talked about the literacy rate there improving. But Ayers also wants to integrate his political ideology into education.

What ideology is that? Well just look at when he uses the word "we" it gives away who Bill Ayers thinks of as those like him.

we as revolutionaries

we as socialists or as communists or as leftists

So Ayers feels a kinship with revolutionaries, socialists, communists, and leftists.

This is the same man who saw Barrack Obama as fit to head his education initiatives. To distribute the funds for programs that would further his "progressive" educational doctrine. Which is to make progressive little commies out of your kids when they are supposed to be learning to reading writing and arithmetic.

Is this the kind of man Obama would want to head education under his administration? Well Obama certainly is the kind of man that Ayers wanted to head the administration of his programs.

You know its funny. I looked all over, but so far I am unable to find an image of Ayers standing on this flag.
