What is was like in those respects many years ago, has continued on in the same direction.
There's a book about the politics of American education, called
The Language Police. It's about 10 years old. It's a little repetitive but at the same time, it is a great way to get a kick in the head about what really goes on politically w.r.t. what our children read (in any subject).
I think it probably counts as "a whole 'nother thread." >:-)
