Description
In the Buckle of the Belt is a must-read case study for every college student aspiring for a career in education, the professors who prepare these students, and citizens concerned by the unrelenting resolve of far right-winged conservatives to push a Christian agenda in our public school system. Michael Maynard, a socialist, secular humanist, and award-winning teacher, was forced out of two high schools in the same school district by principals more concerned with student Christian values than student academic success. Battling false allegations wildly taken out of context, he hopes to expose the threat to both teachers and students when politics and religion merge to replace education with indoctrination. As the evangelical Christians in public education are fond of saying, the first amendment guarantees freedom of religion, not from religion. By weakening teacher unions, removing the protections of tenure, and eliminating dissenting voices these self-righteous evangelicals hope to spread their word and co-opt a country...one school at a time.
