Marxism is Destroying America | Mike Gonzalez
Join us for an insightful discussion as Mike Gonzalez, Senior Fellow at The Heritage Foundation and author of the groundbreaking book, "Next Gen Marxism: What It Is and How to Combat It," delves into the pervasive influence of contemporary Marxism on American culture. In this podcast hosted by the Intercollegiate Studies Institute (ISI), Gonzalez reveals how Marxism, despite its evolution beyond Soviet forms, has seeped into the fabric of our society, shaping narratives and policies that erode individual freedoms and national unity.
In his book, Gonzalez exposes how Marxism, born in European intellectual circles, has transformed through the lens of America's 1960s student radicals. Today, this adapted ideology manifests in identity politics, radical activism, and educational indoctrination, fueling divisions based on race, ethnicity, and sexuality. Gonzalez's analysis provides crucial insights into the origins of America's societal challenges and offers actionable strategies to counter the spread of this new iteration of Marxism.
Tune in to gain a deeper understanding of the ideological battle shaping our nation and discover how we can confront and overcome the influence of next-gen Marxism in our communities and institutions. This podcast is essential listening for anyone concerned about preserving America's founding principles and securing a future based on individual liberty and genuine equality.
