Reassessing America’s Focus on Education and Pronouns

This is an interesting opinion piece from Rahm Emanuel, former mayor of Chicago and Obama’s Chief of Staff.

We’ve spent the past five years debating pronouns without noticing that too many students can’t tell you what a pronoun is. The U.S. has been more focused on whether a school is named for Abraham Lincoln than whether students can tell you why he is an American giant. We’ve become so obsessed with bathroom access that we’ve ignored classroom excellence. America has lost the plot.
