Grade 12: Participation in Government and Civics
This course aims to provide students with opportunities to become engaged in the political process by acquiring the knowledge and practicing the skills necessary for active citizenship. Content specifications are not included, so that the course can adapt to present local, national, and global circumstances, allowing teachers to select flexibly from current events to illuminate key ideas and conceptual understandings. Participation in government and in our communities is fundamental to the success of American democracy.
12.G1 FOUNDATIONS of AMERICAN DEMOCRACY: The principles of American democracy are reflected in the Constitution and the Bill of Rights and in the organization and actions of federal, state, and local government entities. The interpretation and application of American democratic principles continue to evolve and be debated.
1. What is "Cultural Marxism"? Why do you think Paglia and Sommers are concerned about it?
2. Why are the moderators concerned about what they perceive is a lack of History education among American youth?
3. Do you think that the moderators feel there is freedom of speech on college campuses currently?
4. If Dr. Paglia could write a cultural prescription for what she think ails America, in her opinion, what would that prescription look like? What remedies would it call for?
5. Why do you think the moderators are concerned that our young people have given up? What is it that they are concerned your generation has given up on?
