Love Shaun Johnson and the Chalk Face. Will listen tomorrow.

Oh wow, Kyle Olson is something else. I remembered an interview of Olson by Glenn Beck in 2011. It was about how we are creating a "left wing" army in schools by teaching social justice. They talk about how the children's book Click Clack Moo is teaching kids about labor unions.

Here's the video: Scary stuff.

Olson says he stopped reading the subversive book when he realized what it was teaching. The cows were organizing.
