Liz Wheeler on Marxist Influence in US Education
Children in America’s public education system are being harmed by radical Marxist theory, and it’s time for us to recognize this in order to secure a better future for our country. Liz Wheeler, the host of The Liz Wheeler Show and author of “Hide Your Children: Exposing the Marxists Behind the Attack on America’s Children,” passionately argues this point.
In an interview with EpochTV’s American Thought Leaders, Wheeler acknowledges that some may view discussing Marxist influence in education as an insult. However, she points out that during the COVID-19 pandemic, parents had a unique opportunity to witness the content of their children’s online courses. They saw a disturbing emphasis on topics like critical race theory, transgender ideology, and moral relativism, which were being instilled in their children’s minds.
As a student of history, Wheeler understands that this is not an arbitrary effort but a deliberate, systematic attempt to reshape society. Determined to uncover the truth, she focused her book on exposing the individuals and institutions behind this agenda.
Capturing the Children
Wheeler reveals that the left has successfully infiltrated key institutions such as the media, education, many religions, and the law. However, one element of the nuclear family remains untouched: children. This, she believes, is why the left is targeting them.
In her book, Wheeler names the people and institutions responsible for these attacks on America’s children. She discovered that all of them either openly identify as Marxists or embrace an obvious Marxist ideology.
“If we fail to acknowledge who these people are and the ideology they espouse, we cannot effectively fight against them, and our chances of victory diminish,” Wheeler warns. She emphasizes that her book is not only for the sake of the children’s individual souls but also for the future of America. Surrendering our children to the left would be disastrous for our nation.
Paulo Freire
Wheeler criticizes the Republican Party for not actively opposing the left’s ideological transformation of American society. She believes that the Republican Party should be held accountable for their role in this fight.
She points out that many Republican thought leaders struggle to define “woke” culture. However, Wheeler has traced the origins of woke ideology back to Paulo Freire, a Brazilian Marxist and educational theorist. Freire’s book “Pedagogy of the Oppressed” promotes the rejection of objective reality and truth, advocating for critical consciousness through a Marxist lens.
According to historian Alan Charles Kors, Freire’s work, along with Antonio Gramsci’s “Prison Notebooks” and Frantz Fanon’s “The Wretched of the Earth,” has had a profound influence on the humanities in the United States.
Freire idolized Marxist figures like Vladimir Lenin, Mao Zedong, Fidel Castro, and Ernesto “Che” Guevara. His book “Pedagogy of the Oppressed,” published in 1968, has become mandatory reading in many American academic institutions. It calls for the overthrow of capitalist hegemony and the creation of classless societies.
Wheeler asserts that “wokeness” is synonymous with critical consciousness, which is exactly what America’s children are being taught.

The Marxist Agenda in Education
According to Wheeler, the indoctrination of children in America’s public education system is an intentional effort by radical Marxists to reshape society. Critical race theory, transgender ideology, and moral relativism are all part of the curriculum that aims to instill Marxist beliefs and values in the minds of young students.
Throughout her research, Wheeler discovered that those responsible for implementing these ideologies in schools openly identify as Marxists or align themselves with Marxist principles. These individuals and institutions have successfully infiltrated key sectors such as the media, education, religion, and the law. However, children have remained largely untapped by their influence, which is why they have become a target.
Uncovering the Truth
In her book, “Hide Your Children: Exposing the Marxists Behind the Attack on America’s Children,” Wheeler exposes the individuals and institutions that are behind the indoctrination of children. She presents evidence and explores the motivations of these Marxists, shedding light on their agenda to manipulate and control the future generation of Americans.
Wheeler’s work serves as a wake-up call for parents, educators, and policymakers who must recognize the dangers of Marxist influence in education. By understanding the tactics used to indoctrinate children, they can take steps to protect them and ensure a better future for the country.
Conclusion
It is imperative that we acknowledge the harmful influence of radical Marxist theory on America’s public
