Thomas Jefferson (Image by monticello.org) Details DMCA | Most Americans don't realize it, but when their nation began, Thomas Jefferson advocated for complete public education including a college or university education. But today even public education through high school is threatened by two forces -- by Theocrats who ignore Jefferson's constitutional "wall of separation between church and state," and by corporate profiteers who favor a "privatized" for profit education system. And corporate forces are rapidly advancing an agenda to turn America's elementary, middle, and high schools into profit-making businesses. |
