[Kim Seong-kon] When education and politics fail us
Education and politics are closely intertwined, as the failure of education ultimately results in the failure of politics.

250 Things We Love About America
The rush of day-to-day obligations and the occasional frustrations and disappointments of contemporary American life pose the risk that, at times, even the most ardent patriots among us may forget to pause and appreciate this extraordinary country.That danger is worsened by the negative onslaught from the press, the universities, and the museum world. They misleadingly depict America as thoroughly surpassed by China, following 250 years of U.S. racism, sexism, classism, and settler-colonial dispossession of the indigenous population. That demands a response.The post 250 Things We Love About America appeared first on .
