Brutal Minds

Praise for BRUTAL MINDS: The Dark World of Left-Wing Brainwashing in Our Universities by Stanley K. Ridgley, Ph.D.

“A model of clarity and straight talk about a national tragedy, whose destructive energies have yet to run their course.” — David Horowitz, New York Times Bestselling Author

“A brilliant and lively exposé of how left-wing radicals have infiltrated American universities and are destroying freedom of speech and freedom of thought.” — Josh Hammer, Newsweek Opinion Editor and Host of “The Josh Hammer Show”

“If the truth hurts, Stanley Ridgley’s new book should be an excruciating read for the moralizing high priests of the nation’s colleges and universities. BRUTAL MINDS is everything its opponents are not: intellectually serious, scrupulously honest, and absolutely necessary.” — Lyell Asher, Associate Professor, Lewis & Clark College

“This brilliant book is a monumental achievement, worthy of a place beside the classic work of Allan Bloom’s The Closing of the American Mind. The worlds of academia and the universities that Ridgley describe are real and frightening. But his solutions are more than worth contemplating; they could very yet demolish the adversarial “Brutal Minds” in our universities and save our republic.” — Professor Jason D. Hill, Ph.D., DePaul University, Author of What do White Americans Owe Black People
