More about the book

The book critiques the American educational system's focus on teaching children the value of "appreciating differences" under the guise of promoting tolerance. It argues that this approach may inadvertently foster division rather than unity, as it seeks to address rising sentiments of hate. Through analysis, the author explores the implications of these educational practices on societal cohesion and the potential consequences of emphasizing differences over commonalities.
