Insidious Beginnings

About ten years ago I was researching the background of radical activist Bill Ayers and how he had been traveling around the United States speaking to teachers during their union meetings about American Anti-Imperialism, and I came across this name: Robert Muller.⁵ He was the quiet, unassuming United Nations moral provocateur. “No War, No Poverty, No Hunger” was his clarion call. And as we will see in the final chapter, Muller had a profound erosive effect on the concept of American exceptionalism, cultivating support for one world governance within government circles, and, perhaps unwittingly, helped light the fuse for the social unrest we see exploding today.

In the 1960s, Bill Ayers was the radical domestic terrorist who spawned the Weather Underground and who managed to walk free after facing murder charges. Soon after beating the rap, he went into hiding for almost dozen years, only to resurface in New York City at Bank Street College in 1984.⁶ Before we go further, let me share a few thoughts to link contemporary protests and Marxist radicalism with the insidious progression of Bill Ayers from a leader in bombing the NYC Police Department and U.S. Capitol decades ago, to a leader in shaping the core beliefs of our youth over the last thirty-five years.

Where is the frustration, the sense of entitlement, and the disconnect with American traditions and social order among our millennial generation coming from? They must be getting this from somewhere. They've got to be taught this, right? That is correct. And the teacher of our teachers is Bill Ayers. How do I know this?

1. Ayers received a Masters degree from Bank Street College in “Early Childhood Education” 1984
2. Ayers received another Masters degree from Columbia University “Early Childhood Education” 1987
3. Ayers then received a PhD in Education from Columbia University “Curriculum and Education” 1987

To clearly view today's protests and riots, we need to look back and appreciate the nexus between Ayers's radical pedigree, and the relationships which explain his role in shaping the present-day assault on American institutions, which are framed as a fight against American imperialism. This assault shapes not only American politics, but, I submit, limits American progress.

RADICALISM GOES TO SCHOOL

It was with the formation of the Weather Underground in the 1960s that Bill Ayers would begin his terrorizing and physical assault on what he believed to be the institutions of American government imperialism and also those persons in positions of authority. He started a campaign of bombing public buildings in the late 1960s and was a leader of the SDS: Students for a Democratic Society. During those bombings, a police officer was killed, and so were a close friend and the girlfriend of Ayers. But due to FBI mishandling of the case, Ayers walked free, and later bragged about it to the press. “Guilty as sin. Free as a Bird. I Love America.”⁷

In 1974 Ayers published the book “Prairie Fire: The Politics of Revolutionary Anti-Imperialism,” in collaboration with other members of the Weather Underground organization.⁸ The best way for anyone to understand its simple yet destructive message can be explained in the following article, Prairie Fire in the Classroom: Bill Ayers's Bloodless Revolution by William M. Briggs (2018)⁹. Recognize, however, that Bill Ayers is merely a continuance of a deeper and much longer dissent in the American social experiment that started around 1905. The extended excerpt here from Mr. Briggs' article will start to clear the path for us to see the insidious nature of Ayers's assault. The article illuminates the modern shakedown of Traditional Americanism. And shakedown, in my opinion, is the perfect word to describe the assault we are witnessing on America today. It is practically mass coercion, and the young adults rioting today can be seen as the toxic fruits of Ayers's many years of investment in fundamental social engineering.

Bill Ayers 2006 speech to the World Economic Forum in Caracas, Venezuela

“We share the belief that education is the motor-force of Revolution”

Glenn E Singleton, 2006.

“John Dewey suggested that schools must be the engine for Social Transformation”

Vladimir Lenin. circa 1918. .

“Give me four years to teach the children, and the seed I have sewn will never be uprooted”

As Briggs wrote in 2018:

… And then there was Bill Ayers. While the 2008 McCain-Palin Campaign briefly [and ineptly] focused on Ayer's days as a domestic terrorist with the Weather Underground, it failed to discuss Ayer's work in education during the past several decades. It was that work, and not Ayer's terrorist past, that attracted Obama to the former terrorist.

Obama worked with Ayers on the Chicago Annenberg Challenge and served with Ayers on the board of the leftist Woods Fund from 1998 until 2001… According to Ayers in “Public Enemy: Confessions of an American Dissident” [2013], the Woods Fund “supported community organizing.” Members of the Weather Underground called themselves “Community organizers,” as did Obama.

Obama provided praise for Ayer's book A Kind and Just Parent in 1997. Ayers returned the favor the following year in Teaching for Social Justice when he included Obama's Dreams From My Father from a list of books that are “resources for teaching for change.”

Obama and Ayers even appeared together on academic panels, including one organized by Michelle Obama to discuss the juvenile justice system as an area of mutual concern.

The Weather Underground's interest in education was evident even when they were planning a violent revolution in the United States. “We believe that radical teachers should work in schools in working class neighborhoods, in community or junior colleges” Ayers, et al, wrote in Prairie Fire, their 1974 political manifesto. “Radicalizing our teachers, organizing the parents, teach and encourage your students.” Ayer's opinion about radicalizing teachers was unchanged four decades after Prairie Fire. “Revolutionaries want to change the world, of course, and teachers, it turns out, want to change the world too – typically one child at a time,” he wrote in Public Enemy. “It wasn't as much as a reach as you might imagine.”

So how, would these radicalized teachers change the world? Ayers and his wife, Bernadine Dohrn a Weather Underground comrade, offer an answer to that question in “Race Course Against White Supremacy” 2009. “If you want fundamental change, tie your fate to the most oppressed.” The title of their book makes it clear who they consider the oppressed and who they consider the oppressors. The “Fundamental change” [or “Fundamental Transformation” as Obama put it in 2008] they desire is more socialism in this country.

What is going on here? I believe Ayers and his fellow radical teachers have succeeded in getting a “Prairie Fire” curriculum in our nation's classrooms. As Ayers and Dohrn noted in “Race Course against White Supremacy,” they're promoting this fundamental change by tying their fate to the “most oppressed,” i.e., minorities. It's a brilliant strategy since opposing that change opens one up to being called a racist. The promotion of fundamental change is even taking place in a deep Red state like Kansas. The February 2, 2014 issue of my hometown newspaper, the Lawrence Journal-World included an article about Leidene King of the San Francisco-based PEG… Pacific Educational Group presenting a two-day program entitled “Beyond Diversity: An Introduction to Courageous Conversations and a Foundation for Deinstitutionalizing Racism and Eliminating Racial Achievement Disparities.”

“Courageous conversations” is based on a book by Glen E. Singleton, PEG CEO and Curtis Linton. The program is rooted in a discipline known as CRT… Critical Race Theory. What is CRT? The UCLA School of Public Affairs answers that question…

CRT recognizes that racism is ingrained in the fabric and the system of American society. The individual racist need not exist to note the institutional racism is pervasive in the dominant culture. This is the analytical lens that CRT uses in examining existing power structures. CRT identifies that these power structures are based on white supremacy, which perpetuates the marginalization of people of color. CRT also rejects the traditions of liberalism and meritocracy. Legal discourse says that the law is neutral and colorblind, however, CRT challenges this legal “Truth” by examining liberalism and meritocracy as a vehicle for self-interest, power, and privilege.

According to Robert Holland of the Lexington Institute, CRT “Is a radical academic doctrine that gained currency in elite U. S. law schools in the 1980s and 1990s, and has more recently taken hold with multi-culturalism advocates in teacher-training instructions.” “One of the progenitors of CRT, the late Derrick Bell, a Harvard University professor, berated liberal civil-rights scholars for their championship of a colorblind society.” Holland continued, “Like many of his allies, he relied largely on narrative and anecdote to advance his arguments and argued for sweeping societal transformation generated more by political organizing than rights-based legal remedies.

Interestingly, Bell was one of Obama's law professors at Harvard. When Obama was a lecturer at the University of Chicago Law School, one of the courses he taught was a seminar entitled “Current Issues on Racism and Law.” Bell was one of the writers Obama required his students to read. In an interview prior to his death, Bell discussed the Marxist foundation of CRT. As of 2009, Bell served as a sponsor of New Politics; a magazine predominately staffed and run my members of the DSA. Democratic Socialists of America.

The Briggs' article points out how the Liberal Machine seems to just gather around the water cooler at every corner in America and expound on how pervasive racism and oppression is in this county. He suggests that there are communities and organizations that get encouraged by the discussion, and then, we end up seeing the Democratic Socialists of America, various Socialist organizations and the Democratic Liberal/Marxist currency of protest being passed around among us all. It seems the culture of protest is now widespread, even if reason is not. Unfortunately, the results are toxic, and the youngest minds get affected by the hyperbole the most.

The Democratic Socialist “solution” catches on with our idealistic young because they haven't experienced it, and because they believe in the promises without critical examination of the alternatives. The mainstream media plugs in the narrative (even when the results are bad for the individual sovereignty) and the whole thing goes viral. The next thing we see are riots and youngsters at our colleges violently disrupting discourse with destruction and/or protests. As Briggs observed, it is CRT “Critical Race Theory” that is taught in our colleges and this school of thought lends credence and momentum to what we are seeing today with the nearly universal use of the slur “Racist” to attack even well-considered positions that challenge the assumptions, if we disagree with ...
