Brainwashing 101, a Documentary Film by Evan Coyne Maloney

are we in it?

Assuming that this movie supports the conservative position that young voters are being hijacked by the democratic party by way of liberal educators indoctrinating the students, Then we should ask our high schools to show this movie to high school students. If the School resists, then rent a hall and invite students to come and view the movie. you have to spin it as a counterculture event, and use a strong draw to get them to it- like getting popular kids in support of it.. maybe even start a debate about it offering the dems to show something of equal content from the libs perspective. I'm going to do this if this movie is what I think it is...

Thanks for the ping! I just ordered a copy - we're going to show it on campus.

No, it was done at Bucknell, Cal Poly, and University of Tennessee.

Evan has captured some wonderful loony lefties in New York, though. Maybe those are viewable on his website. I love the young woman who says, "If a dictator is going to give everyone free college educations, I LIKE that dictator!" This is just a wee sample.

[firebrand]

Well, it has the F word in it (someone quoting a lefty e-mail). I'll bet some parents of high school kids would object, missing the broader issue, which is academic freedom and free speech, as you surmised.

One of the most articulate speakers in the movie eventually confesses that he is a liberal--he helped the guy at Cal Poly win his case and he comes at this issue from the old-fashioned liberal viewpoint, which is free-speech oriented. Most of the other people are conservatives, because they are the ones being persecuted these days.

[firebrand]

Wonderful! It is entertaining as well as important and will probably provoke a good discussion afterward.

[RaceBannon]

Someone like him interiewed us at that pub after we Freeped the leftists near the UN, remember?

[firebrand]

At McFadden's? I don't remember this. I think I would have remembered if it was Evan.
