Inside The Movement Dumbing Down American Schools

American students are falling further behind their peers around the world, and one education researcher says DEI policies are making the problem worse. Lance Izumi, senior director at the Pacific Research Institute and author of "The Great Equity Epidemic," joins John Bickley and Georgia Howe to discuss how equity-based grading, lowered academic standards, and ideological training are reshaping classrooms across the country. Izumi shares accounts from students, teachers, and parents, including allegations of inflated grades, reduced coursework, and racial divisions in staff training. He also explains why eliminating DEI at the state level may not be enough, and why parents and local school boards will play a critical role in restoring academic standards.
