A good summary of Project 2025...be prepared!

Project 2025 - Wikipedia Project 2025, also known as the Presidential Transition Project, is a collection of conservative policy proposals from The Heritage Foundation to reshape the United States federal government in the event of a Republican Party victory in the 2024 presidential election.[2][3] Established in 2022, the....

"I think one reason students make these demands is that they feel a real gap between what they are learning and the various crises of the world around them, even though they may not always present it this way. I think they are searching for a way to make sense of their world. I do wish the dimension of epistemic decolonization would be more pronounced in such calls. They often become debates about representation without sufficient conversation about what we hope such representation will produce, which is the most important part of the debate."

"I've often said, looking back, that it was all inevitable, SNCC being what it was. Look, when we took on white supremacy and the Klan, we were attacked. But we survived. We took on the president and the National Democratic Party and survived that. When we opposed the [Vietnam] war and the draft, we were really attacked, but survived even that. But dare to open our mouths on Zionism? That one, you don't mess with and survive. That was the lesson the Zionist thought police meant for us to learn in 1967. But we are still here. On this one, history will certainly be the judge. That, you can depend on.

Since these (1967) events, I am proud to say that I have never ceased to speak out and work for justice for the Palestinian people. Consequently, the attacks---on me personally and increasingly on my people---have been incessant. Here I mean scurrilous accusations of 'anti-Semitism,' by which you are meant to a primitive and bigoted hatred of all things Jewish. The Jews as people and Judaism as a religion and culture. Gimme a break. That 'ol dawg just won't hunt...

Of course there is a stain of ugly anti-Jewish religious bigotry in the United States. But have you known a single African ever to burn or bomb a synagogue, desecrate a Jewish tombstone, print swastikas on a Jewish door, or establish any restrictive quotas? C'mon, stop the nonsense."

"One is astonished in the study of history at the recurrence of the idea that evil must be forgotten, distorted, skimmed over. We must not remember that Daniel Webster got drunk but only that he was a splendid constitutional lawyer. We must forget that George Washington was a slave owner . . . and simply remember the things we regard as creditable and inspiring.
The difficulty, of course, with this philosophy is that history loses its value as an incentive and example; it paints perfect man and noble nations, but it does not tell the truth.
