“School children do not want to be politicised” | Dr Bella d’Abrera

Share this edition:

The Melbourne launch of Mindless authored by the IPA’s Dr Bella d’Abrera, attracted a near capacity crowd. The best-selling book, subtitled How the Education System is Indoctrinating Children and Destroying Our Civilisation , exposes the deep flaws of a system which prioritises victimhood over intellectual formation.

Watch Dr Bella’s passionate defence of parents who have legitimate concerns about why literacy and numeracy standards continue to plummet, as classrooms continue being beholden to woke ideology and a culture of victimhood.
