The Contrarian with David Bernstein

Challenging Campus Indoctrination in America with Jason D. Hill S01E10

Episode Summary

In this thought-provoking episode, host David Bernstein sits down with Jason D. Hill, author and professor, to discuss the current state of higher education and the cultural conflicts shaping our universities. Hill passionately argues that universities have become indoctrination centers controlled by the far left since the 1960s, stifling open inquiry and intellectual diversity. Together, they explore radical solutions, including the creation of centers for open inquiry and the defunding of universities to rebuild them from the ground up. We also delve into the controversial topic of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives, debating whether a reformed version focused on equality of opportunity could work. Finally, they discuss the importance of rebranding American identity to foster a new form of patriotic pluralism. Join us for a deep dive into the cultural and intellectual battles being fought on college campuses today, and what can be done to preserve the integrity of higher education and American society.
