Description

Dave Rubin of The Rubin Report talks to Niall Ferguson (Historian, Hoover Institute Senior Fellow) about the decline of academia and the distorting of American history. Niall discusses the backlash to the progressive woke politics that are being forced on children and how it may make the next generation less "woke". Niall also discusses how increasingly intolerant political correctness is causing the decline of higher education. Niall also gives his opinion of the toppling of historic statues. Niall discusses the inaccuracies of the New York Times's Pulitzer Prize winning 1619 Project and how it distorts US history. Niall discusses why he is not worried about the current wave of protests across the country or any approaching tyranny.
