Another thing the civilization destroyers can't stand is the "gifted and talented" programs in schools.
Your host here was in those programs. For my first several years of elementary school I learned out of different books from the rest of the class, and later they introduced a formal "gifted and talented" program for more than just me.
I enjoyed all of it, and it meant I wasn't bored to death studying material I already knew, over and over again.
Then it was decided: programs like that are elitist and non-egalitarian, so out they go.
The campaign against "gifted and talented" is driven partly by the evil "disparate impact" doctrine, which means: any institution or practice that has a disparate impact on the races is ipso facto discriminatory and can expect a lawsuit, even if the practice in question was not intentionally designed to have a racially disparate result.
You've heard some of the horror stories. Seattle phased out its "highly capable cohort" (separate accelerated classes/schools) starting around 2021-2022, and aimed for full phase-out by 2027-2028 (with some delays). The rationale? Addressing "historical inequity" and overrepresentation of white and Asian students.
Your student can't have those programs because we've decided there are too many people in them who look like him.
Rockville Centre, New York, has long moved away from gifted tracking toward mixed-ability classes. San Francisco Unified delayed Algebra I and eliminated honors/gifted math tracks for "equity" purposes. We could go on and on.
Even though some of America's most politically "progressive" people are in education, and despite repeated and aggressive (and expensive) efforts across the country, no school district anywhere in America, no matter how progressive, has ever managed to eliminate the black-white educational achievement gap, which by 12th grade is estimated as a four-year difference. And vastly fewer black students percentage-wise choose to take advanced-placement classes even in school systems in which such classes are open to anyone.
Given that nobody anywhere has been able to solve this problem, why, apart from hatred and spite, should bright students be singled out to be deprived of a program that benefits them?
Well, little Henry Woods, who's about to turn six months old, ain't going to be put through the egalitarian meat grinder. I don't have the heart to do it to him.
In fact, quite to the contrary:
You may have heard me mention an extraordinary book, one that any parents of a son (a book for young women is supposed to be produced in the future) simply have to read. I read it and immediately had a copy shipped to Dave Smith, with a note: You have a son, and for his sake you need to read this.
It's called The Preparation, co-authored by our great friend and investor Doug Casey, though he tells me it was nearly called Renaissance Man.
Have your son pursue this, and he will emerge as the most interesting person everyone he meets will know.
It's a four-year, 16-cycle alternative to college that forges a debt-free EMT, pilot, builder, sailor, and entrepreneur -- oh, and someone who can prepare authentic Italian cooking because he learned it in Florence.
Your son will emerge not as a graduate with a degree and a loan balance, but as a young man who can fly a plane, save a life, build a house, and hold his own in any room.
He'll take courses, too, but not ones taught by crazy people who hate him.
So many young people these days are without direction, and in this AI world don't know what to do.
Doug Casey is training young men to be masters of the universe.
Make sure your son becomes one of them; I'll do everything I can to make sure Henry will:
