EDUCATION'S FUTURE:
GLOBALIZATION OF INDOCTRINATION
| |
AN ENLIGHTENING CAUSE-AND-EFFECT LOOK INTO THE SOURCE OF THE BRAINWASHING OF OUR CHILDREN
We know the "effect", but have you ever wondered about the "cause" behind the present-day education indoctrination
of our children? Hold onto your seats; it isn't pretty:
| |
|
DO AS I SAY, NOT AS I DO
Microsoft Founder, Bill Gates, who financed Common Core with, ultimately, $2 billion, signed an agreement with the United Nations' Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) to
globalize education.
| | |
Interestingly, Gates' kids, on the other hand, went to an elite,
private school. And so did he.
| | |
National education standards,
such as Common Core, that focus on manipulating cultural norms and morals are being melded with UN standards that, if possible, are worse.
In 2014, when Bill Gates, through the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation,
used his fortune to promote adoption of the now-controversial Common Core
education standards, UNESCO's World Core Curriculum, vilified in many quarters
on both the right and left, has produced a globalized takeover of the world's schools.
Since the U.S. education standards spewing forth from these very dangerous
programs have continued since their promotion and financing, the future of
U.S. education is globalization and indoctrination, on steroids. As is currently
the case, instead of actually educating children, government schools in America,
and all over the world, are quickly being transformed into indoctrination centers.
Using a century of psychological research, these indoctrination centers are designed to transform children into unthinking cogs in a globalist machine. Many of its architects have boasted of their agenda to "weaponize" public schools against
individualism, all religions, and more.

Microsoft Working With UN to Speed Up Globalization of Education through Information Technology
On behalf of Microsoft, Gates personally
signed a Cooperation Agreement with the UN agenda to speed up, with the UN agency, the
globalization of education information technology.
Among the goals of the partnership with Microsoft, then-UNESCO Director General Koichiro Matsuura dropped some bombshells in a speech:
"...fostering web-based communities of practice, including content development and worldwide curricula, reflecting UNESCo values,"
The Agreement also noted:
"Microsoft supports the objectives of UNESCO, as stipulated in UNESCO's Constitution."

Early Acolyte
UN Assistant Secretary-General Robert Muller created the World Core Curriculum based on teachings of Lucifer Publishing Company founder Alice Bailey, and said...
"...it should be taught
in all schools,
worldwide."
| | |
|
Alice A. Bailey - An Overview
In the "World Core Curriculum Manual" written by UN Asst. Secretary-General Robert Muller, above, the preface contains a stunning admission:
"The underlying philosophy upon which
The Robert Muller School is based," he wrote,
...will be found in the teachings set forth
in the books of Alice A. Bailey
by the Tibetan teacher, Djwhal Khul."
Among other dubious distinctions, Bailey was one of the Founders of the occult New Age Movement. She was also a key figure in theosophy, which theosophists have admitted helped inspire the National Socialists (Nazis) in Germany.
The "spirits" Bailey channeled helped her predict a new global religion that would "smash" biblical Christianity, national sovereignty, and everything else at odds with the coming...
"Age of Aquarius."

IRINA BOKOVA
Former UN Education Chief, Irina Bokova, a Communist Party operative, who served a mass-murdering dictatorship, boasted of using the world's schools to change the attitudes, values, and beliefs of all children.
| | | |
|
What About Being American?
Obama's Education Secretary, Arne Duncan, called UNESCO his "global partner" and boasted of using the "weapon" of education to turn children into "green" and "global" citizens.
"Our goal for the coming year will be to work closely with global partners,
such as UNESCO, to promote qualitative improvements and system strengthening
of our schools."
Arne Duncan, Secretary
U.S. Department of Education
| | | |
This Is Not Party Specific
Leading Common Core peddlers, from both parties, have proudly trumpeted their efforts to globalize American education. In 2014, a conference hosted by Common Core ringleader and former Florida Governor, Jeb Bush, was called ...
"Globalization of Higher Education".
Among the attendees were Hillary Clinton, chief Common Core advocate; then-U.S. Education Secretary, Arne Duncan; former World Bank President, Robert Zoellick; UNESCO officials; university presidents; and more.
| |
|
Even though President Trump withdrew from UNESCO, his U. S. Education Secretary Betsy DeVos, who falsely claimed Common Core was "dead", signed the Group 20 (G20) Intergovernmental Forum Education Declaration, vowing to keep "globalizing education".
The whole vision revolves around the UN Agenda 2020 Sustainable Development Goals,
a road-map to global technocracy.

Reading, Writing, and Arithmetic are Being Replaced
The "Three "R's" are being replaced with social justice, values clarification, and absurd math that confuses even professional mathematicians.
"You have probably
heard that math is racist. "
Jared Taylor, Editor
American Renaissance
See Jared Taylor discuss, below, teacher programs to undo the "racism" in mathematics through such teacher workbooks as...
"A Pathway to Equitable Math Instruction: Dismantling Racism in Mathematics Instruction"

READING -
THE WHOLE WORD
OR SIGHT METHOD
Both UNESCO and Common Core demand that reading be taught using the "whole word" or "sight" method, first exposed as quackery in the 1840s by the nation's school leaders.
In UNESCO's "Guide to Teaching Reading at the Primary School Level", the UN agency says, "
"Children should be able to learn
sight vocabulary in context,
rather than isolation (phonics)."
Under Common Core, kindergarten children are forced to memorize sight words.
"...the most confusing, irrational, and nonsensical reading program ever invented by
'so-called' educators."
Dr. Samuel Blumenfeld
(reading educator for over fifty years)

HOW MUCH WILL
ALL THIS COST?
Calling for "international investment in education", the UNESCO "deal" touts,
"existing and potential international
mechanisms for financing education."
If you think the U.S. federally funded and controlled education system is bad, wait until "international mechanisms" are in charge!
| | | |
Why Do We Have a Department of Education? | |
Although the Department of Education is a relative newcomer among Cabinet-level agencies, its origins go back to 1867, when President Andrew Johnson signed legislation creating the first Department of Education.
Its main purpose was to collect information and statistics about the Nation's schools.
However, due to concern by the Republicans that the Department would exercise too much control over local schools, the new Department was demoted to an Office of Education in 1868.
| |
Upon signing the Department of Education Organization Act Statement in October, 1979, President Jimmy Carter said,
"Primary responsibility for education should rest with those States, localities, and private institutions that have made our Nation's education system the best in the world,
BUT...
the Federal Government has for too long failed to play its own supporting role in education as effectively as it could."
President Jimmy Carter, 1979
Creating the Department of Education was Carter's fulfillment of a 1976 presidential campaign promise, when he earned the endorsement of the largest labor union in the United States: the National Education Association (NEA).
"The NEA gave its first presidential endorsement ever in 1976, when the
Carter administration would form an education department."
"Washington Post"

They Should Have Left Well Enough Alone!
In Jimmy Carter's speech, upon signing the
Department of Education Organization Act
in 1979, above, he, rightfully, described the
appropriate approach to maintaining the
Nation's educational prowess, worldwide:
"Primary responsibility for education
should
rest with those States, localities, and private institutions that have made the United States' education system the
BEST IN THE WORLD!"

How to Break the Stranglehold | |
"It is clear that even under Trump, who promised to kill Common Core and get the Feds out of education, nothing substantial has changed on the education front. All of the reformers who thought electing a Republican Congress and a Republican President would solve the problem have been proven wrong, AGAIN!
The fix is in at the top.
Yet, the stranglehold that the globalists and deep-staters have had over, and within, the U.S. government,
long before Trump became President, can be broken."

There IS HOPE, a Call to Action!
There are many actions we can jointly take to thwart this
usurpation of citizens' rightful control over what, and how,
academics are taught to our children; here are two:
| |
IPEC is commencing a plan to
invite all states to work together to solve the international factions',
unions', and the government-run
U.S. Department of Education's monopolistic grip
on our national school system.
We can become the best again!
| | |
How, you might ask?
To completely abolish the
U.S. Department of Education.
Let's work with the below states in passing H.R. 899, a U.S. House Bill
"To Terminate the
Department of Education".
| | |
H.R. 899 - A One-Sentence Bill to Terminate the Federal
Department of Education by December 31, 2022
| |
"H.R. 899 Addresses the Following:
• The federal government does not have the authority to dictate how and what children should learn, and the DOEd is yet another example of how the federal government has created institutions and regulations to push its own agenda.
• The DOEd has been corrupted and bogged down by private interests, contentious politics, and general bureaucratic inefficiency:
It is doing more harm than good.
• Education cannot be shaped by a uniform, “one-size-fits-all” pedagogy, determined by “professional educators” who’ve never taught a day in their lives. Only states and local districts can understand the needs of schools and the students that attend them on an individual level."
U.S. Representative Thomas Massie
| | |
|
H. R. 899 Sponsor/Co-Sponsors
This one-sentence-long Bill is sponsored by Kentucky U.S. Representative Thomas Massie, who introduced it on February 5, 2021. There are currently 20 Co-Sponsors, with the following states endorsing the legislation:
- Texas, Florida, Georgia, Arizona, South Carolina, Alabama, Colorado, Illinois, North Carolina.

President Ronald Reagan
Had It Right
Ronald Reagan with his Education Secretary, William J. Bennett, in 1986, lower left, believed that the Department of Education should be shuttered; neither got his way.
President Reagan laid out what has become one of the Republican's primary arguments against the Department of Education:
"Welfare and education are two functions that should be primarily carried out at the state and local levels."
President Ronald Reagan
40th President of the United States
In his Address to the Nation on the Program for Economic Recovery, President Ronald Reagan said,
“As a third step, we propose
to dismantle two Cabinet Departments,
Energy and Education."
President Ronald Reagan
40th President of the United States

Others Who have Sought to Dismantle It
Besides the aforementioned Republicans' successful reducing Andrew Johnson's attempt to commence a cabinet-level DOEd in 1868, other attempts to duly prevent the seizing of parental, and other, educational rights via the current, "bloated" Department of Education have taken place:
At a September, 2011, Presidential debate in Orlando, FL, a substitute teacher asked the crowded field of candidates:
"What, as President, would you seriously do about what I consider a massive overreach of big government in the classroom?"
There was consensus among the following candidates:
"Put the agency back in its place."
| | |
Gary Johnson, Libertarian Candidate:
"I am going to promise to advocate for the abolishment of the Federal Department of Education."
Newt Gingrich, Republican Candidate:
"You need to dramatically shrink the Federal Department of Education, get rid of virtually all of its regulations."
Michelle Bachmann, Republican Candidate:
"I would go over to the Department of Education; I'd turn off the lights; I would lock the door; and I would send all the money back to the states and localities."
| | |
|
Try, Try Again!
Remember:
"Failure is a bend in the road,
not an end of the road."
Let's help all those men and women who have tried in the past, and will try in the future, to put an end to this unfair monopoly that is the
U.S. Department of Education by abolishing it in its entirety, and give it back to the
parents and states to rightfully administer.
Our kids deserve better than what they're getting!
