Are Leaders Born Or Made?
Did you know you're already a leader?
The following are excerpts from the best-seller, INSPIRATION FOR TEENS:
"It doesn't mean being in charge of a group or giving orders to others. Instead, being a leader means having an influence on others, an influence to make others think and act in a way you would like. For good or for bad.
"In practical terms, a mother influences her son with a statement that he follows, favorably or unfavorably. Likewise, the son leads his mother with a reaction that influences her response.
"The mother thus becomes a follower in her conventional role as a leader, and the son becomes a leader in his expected role as a follower. Roles are inherently fluid and always shifting, depending on who exercises influence at the moment.
"A newborn is the most insistent and effective leader: the new and excited mother is ready to respond to her child’s every reflex and expression. Leadership is not only a stimulus-response phenomenon but one of response-as-stimulus.
"American culture does not recognize nor encourage our individual inner leadership ability. Instead, it venerates leadership as a phenomenon outside of ourselves, the exclusive franchise of a select few who possess well-developed skills, or to reflect someone in authority.
"To the contrary, Peter Block in his 1987 book, The Empowered Manager, confirms our view about where you find leadership: “…if you want a leader, look in the mirror.”

Human nature offers a very simple two-word definition of leadership: to influence. Put another way, leadership is a verb, not a noun. You are active in generating an idea or an action that influences, or you are influenced by an idea or action.
"Your thinking, speaking, or acting influences you or another person to act, or not to act. It is the power of suggestion. It is found in our human nature."
Make no mistake about it, you are a born leader.

Howard Zinn
Arguably the most effective anti-American academic fraud was Howard Zinn. Abandoning all objectivity, his book, "The People's History of the United States," begins with a subtle but substantial lie in the book's own title: it's not the "People's History...," it should read, "Howard Zinn's History..."
Howard Zinn was a well-known academic who wrote a textbook titled, "A People's History of the United States."
Some people like his book because it tells a different story than what we usually learn about history. But...
There are highly questionable areas in Zinn's book. What follows are specific examples to understand why some people think Zinn got things wrong.
1. Making History Simple and One-Sided:
Zinn's book tells us that American history is mostly about how American capitalism has made America a bad country. He says there was a lot of unfairness and oppression. But he only focuses on the struggles of certain groups, such as the American Indian, and doesn't talk about other important parts of American history. He doesn't mention, for example, the progress the country has made in the advancement of civil rights, voting rights, and women's rights.
Nor does he mention in the later editions of his book such programs as Medicare and Medicaid, Head Start, The Clean Air Act, or the National School Lunch Program - to name a few.

_________________________________________
2. Ignoring Individual Choices and Making History Too Simple:
Zinn doesn't think individuals can make important choices in history. In Chapter 6 of his book, he sees them as either victims or oppressors. But history is much more complicated. Zinn sees everything as black and white, with no grey areas that are required by human nature. Humans make choices, both good and bad, and many of those shape what happens. Zinn doesn't show any evidence of this complexity in his book.
3. Treating History Only as a Class Struggle:
Zinn looks at history from a certain perspective called Marxism, which is fully laid out in Chapter 13. He thinks that money and social class are the most important things in history. And he ignores the influence of culture and ideas. Zinn's focus on class struggle makes him miss these other important elements of America's past.
4. Not Talking About the Good Things in American History:
Zinn only talks about the bad things in American history, which suggests a childish drive-by view of America's past. He doesn't tell us about the good things or the people who worked hard to make society better. This makes his view of American history one-sided and unfair. We need to understand both the good and bad to have a complete picture.
5. Misrepresenting Evidence Carefully and Ignoring Other Ideas:
Zinn misuses evidence that supports what he already thinks, like the example in this video. He ignores evidence that might say something different. This means he doesn't give a fair view of American history. To really understand America's past, we need to look at different viewpoints and consider different ideas.
Summary:
Howard Zinn's book "A People's History of the United States" is a diatribe against the United States, and it over-simplifies American history by focusing on one side of the American story. He ignores what's good about America.
We should always get a fair understanding of the past without allowing an ideology to color the narrative.
History, it can be said, is a never-ending argument, but Zinn allows for no other argument than his own.

In reviewing Zinn's claims, you will understand why critics designate him, not as a historian, but as a propagandist, a person who advocates for a certain ideology. And in his case, Howard Zinn considered himself a Marxist sympathizer.

Fun History Facts
Approach the teaching of history as if you're having some fun history facts
thrown into the teaching process. Take a perspective that runs contrary to
the traditional way of learning it, which is lots of facts, dates, memorization,
and original sources.
This video shows you how to make a teen love broccoli and history.
Brace yourself...you're in for a real eye-opener.

Social Emotional Learning
We demonstrate how and why our program is a no-nonsense alternative to so-called social emotional learning in our schools.
_________________________________________
Watch this short and hard-hitting summary of our mission now: https://rumble.com/v2jnm6m-student-centered-learning.html
_________________________________________
Or, you can view our program as the OPPOSITION to the Woke culture in many of our schools.
This video reveals why we use America's past to activate and energize our youth so they can believe in themselves and in their country.
These inspirational videos for students have an unintended consequence: they present a genuine bonding opportunity between parent and student, and that's priceless.
Plus, each video has questions that aren't likely to be answered right away, so it can take time to answer, and a full week has proven to be just right.
________________________________________
And that's why these inspirational videos for students provide an easy subscription for parents to share with their children. We post one new video each Wednesday at 3 pm ET.
_________________________________________
If you want the entire series up front, you can go to our website’s STORE and make a purchase. Plus, your purchase is tax-deductible.
Suggestion... if you'd like colorful and visual reminders that you can display in the home, consider getting the GRAPHICS package here at our STORE: https://americaneducationdefenders.com/product/graphics-for-growth/ Because of our non-profit status, your purchase is tax-deductible.
Each video is divided into 3 parts in the following order:
1. Story
2. Life lessons(s) and
3. Questions.
You can watch 2 example videos on our website's homepage:
https://www.americaneducationdefenders.com
Please click the FOLLOW button above.
We decided a long time ago to "go video" because of these 7 distinct advantages:
1. Improved Engagement:Videos are a more engaging form of media than traditional learning materials. By presenting the content in a dynamic and visually appealing way, it can capture their attention and make learning more enjoyable. With the use of true stories of unknown Americans and life lessons, students can be emotionally invested in the content, which can lead to a greater interest in learning about American history. Is that a duh?!
2. Enhanced Retention:Another advantage of using videos to teach American history is that it can help to enhance retention of the material. By presenting true stories of unknown Americans, students can see how the concepts they are learning about are applied in real life, making it more memorable and easier to recall in the future.
3. Development of Critical Thinking:By including questions that directly connect the students to the lessons, videos can encourage the development of critical thinking skills. This can help students to analyze and interpret the information presented, making connections between the historical events and their own lives, and ultimately gaining a deeper understanding of the significance of American history. Additionally, the life lessons presented in the videos can help students to develop a sense of empathy and understanding for others, as well as inspire them to make positive changes in their own lives.
4. Improved Visual Learning:One of the biggest advantages of using videos to teach American history is that it provides a more visual learning experience. Videos can show historical events, people, and places in ways that textbooks and lectures cannot, making it easier for students to understand and remember the information.
5. Greater Accessibility:Another advantage of using videos to teach American history is that it can make the content more accessible to a wider range of students. Many students, especially those who are visual or auditory learners, may struggle with traditional teaching methods. By incorporating videos, educators can create a more inclusive learning environment that accommodates different learning styles.
6. Flexibility:Videos are also a flexible medium, allowing students to watch them on their own time and at their own pace. This can be particularly useful for students who need to review the material or who are absent from class.
7. Improved Retention:Finally, videos can help improve the retention of information. By presenting information in a visual and memorable way, students are more likely to remember key details and concepts.
Additionally, the questions that directly connect the student to the lessons can help students to retain information and develop critical thinking skills.
In effect, social emotional learning could use some real help.

Student Centered Learning
American Education Defenders, Inc. is a non-profit company whose focus is student centered learning. We present America's past in a creative way to help our students believe in themselves and in their country.
Finally, the past becomes relevant, meaningful, and personal. It's w-a-y okay to be skeptical as you continue reading.

_________________________________________
We use true stories from America's past to show our children that they have
what it takes to achieve and excel right now, not 20 years from now.
It comes as a "pattern interrupt" in a long-established education culture that has
been marked by standardization, compliance, and conformity.
In other words, there's little or no room for imagination or creativity.
Which is why our program is ideal for students in grades 6 through 12.
In our year-long series of videos, we prove that every child possesses valuable
qualities like independence, resourcefulness, responsibility, creativity,
determination, empathy, and honesty.
These are values that America has always held dear, and by boosting their
self-confidence, we help our kids overcome any doubts they may have about
themselves.
We can teach our young ones the value of these qualities.
And when these qualities are attacked by anyone, our kids will likely
defend and preserve them.
In effect, we provide the seedbed for a new American patriotism.

Public schools just aren't cutting it when it comes to building confident kids,
but our program can be a great addition to any charter school or homeschooling curriculum
that seeks to teach life lessons from our past in a meaningful and personal way.
In short, we don't do history using the boring "stats and facts" that you
were forced to study when you were in high school.
Instead, we use history creatively to help and advance the personal growth
of our teenagers and preteens.
And here's something we didn't expect: our videos actually bring families
closer together.
Each video comes with thought-provoking questions designed to get both
students and parents to think about how the lesson relates to them personally.
You might be surprised by what you learn about each other.
Our approach to history might seem a bit selfish, but it works. We always ask
ourselves, "What's in it for me?" and this helps our children see the value in
these stories and apply them to their own lives.
Which is why all we do is centered around the student.
And hey, check out the short video summary above of a talk by our chairman,
Paul Lloyd Hemphill, at Wellesley College. You don't want to miss it.

It's okay to interrupt the standard education pattern, which is partly a
focus on textbook learning. Student centered learning is simply the
necessary and invigorating interruption to a failed education system.
