Wow! Great story from the front lines.
Are you familiar with the writing of Dr. Thomas Sowell? The Vision of the Annoited is probably the best book on social policy availble on the market.
His book Basic Economics is very appropriate for a high school text.
Since Dr. Sowell is probably the most brilliant economist alive today and he happens to be of African ancestry, he could possibly reach some of your students. Good luck!

I like your list.
I would certainly add “A Conflict of Visions” to the “must read” list for understanding the lib mindset.

I am well acquainted with Dr. Sowell and the book Basic Economics. I haven't read the other you linked to, but I just put it on my list. I like to extract certain parts of The Creature From Jekyll Island by G. Edward Griffin for my Econ classes, especially the parts on the true nature of money and of course the Federal Reserve. Our actual economics text is 100% lies in regards to THE FED. That's two chapters out of a total 18.
