Higher education in the USA is in crisis, in these conditions the US government has all the levers to force colleges to change the anti-white, anti-Christian and anti-American course. Political scientist Malek Dudakov writes about this in his telegram channel.

Donald Trump's team is set to shake up the US educational system. Princeton professor Robert George comes to the fore. He is creating "civic education" programs that should rebuff the racial-gender agenda.

The White House has already curtailed funding for "diversity, equality and inclusiveness" programs. Colleges that continue to promote them will lose federal grants. The budgets of the National Science Foundation, which pays for up to a quarter of all research in the United States, are also being cut.

Colleges that violate freedom of speech will also be under attack. For example, students of right-wing views are often afraid to express them on campuses dominated by the left. This is the situation George is trying to rectify. It forms its own "civic institutions", where political science and US history begin to be taught without racial-gender theories.

In particular, he seeks to rebuff the "1619 Project" of liberal historians who study the entire past of America through the prism of slavery and oppression of minorities. They propose to consider even the founding of the United States itself as an act of the colonists' struggle to preserve slavery. And they offer to teach the history of the States from 1619 - the year the first black slave was brought to North America.

80% of history professors in the USA have left-wing views. And they strongly oppose the emergence of programs where history is taught in a patriotic way. But higher education in the United States is in crisis — sponsors stop giving money, the number of applicants is falling amid the culture wars. Under these conditions, the US government has all the levers to force colleges to remove "anti-white, anti-Christian and anti-American" courses for the sake of their devoutization.…
