Do teachers have a front-row seat to America’s decline?
Jeremy S. Adams, a teacher at both the high school and college levels, thinks so.
Adams has spent decades trying to instill wisdom, ambition, and a love of learning in his students. And yet, as he notes, when teachers get together, they often share an arresting conclusion: Something has gone terribly wrong. Something essential is missing in our young people.
Their curiosity seems stunted, their reason undeveloped, their values uninformed, their knowledge lacking, and most worrying of all, their humanity diminished.
Educators like Adams see a generation slipping away. The problems that have hollowed out our young people have been festering for years. A year of lockdowns and social distancing have magnified them. The result could be a generation—and our nation’s future—lost in a miasma of alienation and stupefaction.
