These executive orders by President Trump, presented as a reform of the American education system, actually reveal a distorted view of educational essence. Restricting the teaching of racism in the classroom is akin to the saying ‘pulling ears to hear’. The crackdown on anti-Semitism is nothing but a politicization of the issue. Allowing public funds to flow to private schools is a squandering of public resources. It’s a massive destruction of traditional educational philosophy, trying to consolidate power through such means.
