- Abstract
[11] Cited in Will Bunch, "Real DeSantis launch glitch was its fascism| Will Bunch Newsletter", The Philadelphia Inquirer (May 30, 2023). Capitalism has always been constructed on the basis of organizedviolence. In the age of a resurgent fascism, it would be wise for educators andothers to be reminded of the importance of critical education, historicalmemory, civic literacy, and collective resistance as a counterweight tothe current language of nativism, ultra-nationalism, bigotry, andviolence. Itboldly embraces white Christian nationalism, violence as a crucialelement of politics, and uses state power to crush dissent and all formsof critical education, especially those pedagogical practices related tosexual orientation, critical race theory, and a critical rendering ofhistory.
