As the nation grapples with a volatile culture war over just what version of American history our children will grow up learning, in this episode we will see that the Public School has always been a complicated, explosive, sometimes bizarre socio-political battleground. We\u2019ll look at the messy transformations of children\u2019s curricula through the conservative and progressive clashes over the bible, evolution, Black anti-literacy laws, Indian boarding schools, anti-commie-patriotism, good suburban morals, multiculturalism, and a radical public television program called Sesame Street.\n\n Become a Patron to get access to our brand new podcast Walk with Me\n\nSubscribe to Everyone's a Critic!\n\nAmerican Hysteria is written, produced, and hosted by Chelsey Weber-Smith\nSound design by Clear Commo Studios\n Research and co-writing by Riley Smith\nVoice acting by Will Rogers\nCo-produced and edited by Miranda Zickler \xa0\n \n Please leave us a review on Apple Podcasts or wherever you listen, it really helps us out!\xa0\n\nFollow American Hysteria on social media:\nTwitter: @AmerHysteria\n Instagram: @AmericanHysteriaPodcast\n Find our merch at americanhysteria.com\nLearn more about your ad choices.
