The Blaze, by Benjamin
Weingarten, February 11, 2014
In a recent article, TheBlaze’s Fred Lucas noted a troubling aspect of the
mindset driving Common Core. Lucas revealed that during an education panel at
the liberal think tank Center for American Progress, Common Core proponent
and former Massachusetts
education Secretary Paul Reveille stated “the children belong to all of us.”
Back in 2010, U.S. Education Secretary Arne Duncan argued
that schools should have a communal function stating:
“My vision is that schools need to be community centers. Schools
need to be open 12, 13, 14 hours a day six, seven days a week, 12 months out of
the year, with a whole host of activities, particularly in disadvantaged communities…Where
schools truly become centers of the community, great things happen.”
In doing some research on progressive education, we came
across “Education: Free & Compulsory,” a 1971 book written by
libertarian economist Murray
Rothbard. In the book, Rothbard notes that Frances
Wright and Robert Dale
Owen, two of the first socialists in America, writing in the early-to-mid-1800s,
outlined an education system eerily ideologically similar to that of Paul
Reveille, Arne Duncan and other proponents of Common Core specifically
and progressive education more broadly.
