Summary

Former Education Secretary Betsy DeVos delivers blunt insights about her fight for conservative reforms in America’s schools after being vilified by the teachers unions, media and Democrats。
 
As students and parents grapple with the long-term effects of the unprecedented coronavirus shutdowns, DeVos establishes herself as a leader in the new battle in the classroom: the intrusion into curriculum by activists seeking to reappraise American history and pursue a liberal social agenda。

Few people have been immersed in these issues and these battles as long as DeVos。 Long before she was tapped by President Trump to serve as secretary of education, DeVos established herself as one of the country’s most influential advocates for school choice and charter schools。 And she has stories to tell: DeVos received so many credible threats against her life that she became the first Education Secretary in history to be assigned security provided by U。S。 Marshals。

In Hostages No More, DeVos unleashes her candid thoughts about working in the Trump administration, recounts her battles over the decades to put students first, hits back at “woke” curricula in our schools and describes why the fight for the future of the American child is so vital and important to the future of the country。

This book runs counter to the dogma of my political tribe and is written by opposing scum that is the enemy of that tribe。 Reading anything counter to my current belief structures could cause painful cognitive dissonance。 Since Betsy DeVos is an obvious partisan hack, there is no reason to read this book because I know it's trash。 I am not a partisan hack。 I am a critical thinker。 The right just wants to control me。 I must be diligent and speak out。 Silence is Violence, War Is Peace, Freedom Is This book runs counter to the dogma of my political tribe and is written by opposing scum that is the enemy of that tribe。 Reading anything counter to my current belief structures could cause painful cognitive dissonance。 Since Betsy DeVos is an obvious partisan hack, there is no reason to read this book because I know it's trash。 I am not a partisan hack。 I am a critical thinker。 The right just wants to control me。 I must be diligent and speak out。 Silence is Violence, War Is Peace, Freedom Is Slavery, and Ignorance Is Strength。 。。。more

A more accurate subtitle would be "The Fight for Freedom from Education" - DeVos's goal is not to provide a better education to American children, but to control educational opportunities and ensure those future generations don't learn critical thinking。 A more accurate subtitle would be "The Fight for Freedom from Education" - DeVos's goal is not to provide a better education to American children, but to control educational opportunities and ensure those future generations don't learn critical thinking。 。。。more
