Ridgley, Ph.D.. 264 1 $a West Palm Beach, FL : $b Humanix Books, $c 2023. 300 $a xiii, 287 pages ; $c 24 cm. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 520 $a "Much of university life is controlled by subsidized paranoiacs, amateur psychotherapists, neo-Marxist totalitarians, "student affairs professionals" imbued with authoritarian mentality, and racialist thought reformers who run workshops that destroy family ties and traditional beliefs to clear the way for new relationships grounded in racialist ideology. These are the brutal minds who threaten and abuse students in the name of an academic fraud called "antiracist pedagogy." In Brutal Minds, award-winning professor Stanley K. Ridgley exposes the dangers of radicalization, cancel culture, academic censorship, and the growing influence of socialists "boldly transforming" colleges across the country into reeducation camps of dull conformity. An educational charade masks activities and ideology as dangerous as those that inspired Communist China's tragic Cultural Revolution. This book strips away the fȧade of the modern American university to reveal the malignant bureaucratic viscera inside the institution. It is a dark world, an anti-intellectualist sanctuary where brutal minds find purpose, protection, camaraderie, subsidy, and power. Dr. Ridgley's book calls us to action to halt this anti-intellectual takeover of higher education and to restore the greatness of one of Western civilization's most brilliant creations, the American University." -- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a College teachers $x Political activity $z United States. 650 0 $a Universities and colleges $x Attitudes. $x Attitudes. 650 0 $a Left-wing extremists $x Influence. $x Influence. 650 0 $a College administrators $x Attitudes. 650 7 $a College teachers $x Political activity. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00868147. 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155. 941 $a 2 952 $l BKPC251 $d 20240621164123.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20230906010110.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B34B500E4C7A11EE8105036A52ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
