Book excerpt: Talking to children about terrorism used to be unthinkable. These days however, they have been exposed to the realities of a sometimes hostile world. That doesn't mean that national security has to be a scary subject. In fact, our children are the key to our nation's security and strength because they are the future. How children define good citizenship will have a significant impact on how they will guide America later. When they learn to be accountable for their actions, respect diversity, and show compassion, they are learning to be good American citizens. When children practice the tips from HOW KIDS CAN BE GOOD CITIZENS in everyday situations, they serve as good role models for their community and someday, the world. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Mother of five, Ms. Bennett brings a unique perspective to national security by combining the skills she uses at home with those required in her work as a CIA officer. Observing that parenting requires balance, objectivity, and the ability to remain focused on the long-term, Bennett demonstrates the importance of these qualities in securing America in her book NATIONAL SECURITY MOM. Ms Bennett has packed her powerful lessons of citizenship into this children's book to provide parents and teachers a tool for demonstrating civil leadership. As a Senior Counterterrorism Analyst in the CIA, Gina Bennett authored the earliest warnings of today's terrorism trends, including the 1993 report that foreshadowed the danger of Osama bin Laden. Her analysis was deemed "prescient" and "genius" by major media and senior government officials and has gained recent popularity from the Oscar-nominated film "Zero Dark Thirty," Emmy-winning Showtime series "Homeland," and the HBO Documentary "Manhunt" which catapulted Ms. Bennett into the spotlight as a founder of "The CIA Sisterhood."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Educating for citizenship was the original mission of American schools, but for decades that knowledge—also known as civics education—has been in decline, as schools have shifted focus to college and career, STEM, and raising reading and math scores. But over the last few years, spurred on by political polarization and a steep decline in public understanding, civics education is seeing a nation-wide resurgence, as school leaders, educators, and parents recognize the urgency of teaching young people how America works—especially young people who have been marginalized from the political system. But this isn’t your grandmother’s civics. The “new” civics has been updated and re-tooled for the phone-addicted, multi-cultural, globalized twenty-first century kid. From combatting “fake news” with fact checking in Silicon Valley, to reviving elementary school social studies in Nashville, to learning civic activism in Oklahoma City, journalist Holly Korbey documents the grassroots revival happening across the country. Along the way, she provides an essential guidebook for educators, school leaders and caregivers of all types who want to educate a new generation of engaged citizens at a critical time in American democracy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Profound, vital and correct. Hirsch highlights the essence of our American being and the radical changes in education necessary to sustain that essence. Concerned citizens, teachers, and parents take note! We ignore this book at our peril."— Joel Klein, former Chancellor of New York City Public Schools In this powerful manifesto, the bestselling author of Cultural Literacy addresses the failures of America’s early education system and its impact on our current national malaise, advocating for a shared knowledge curriculum students everywhere can be taught—an educational foundation that can help improve and strengthen America’s unity, identity, and democracy. In How to Educate a Citizen, E.D. Hirsch continues the conversation he began thirty years ago with his classic bestseller Cultural Literacy, urging America’s public schools, particularly at the elementary level, to educate our children more effectively to help heal and preserve the nation. Since the 1960s, our schools have been relying on “child-centered learning.” History, geography, science, civics, and other essential knowledge have been dumbed down by vacuous learning “techniques” and “values-based” curricula; indoctrinated by graduate schools of education, administrators and educators have believed they are teaching reading and critical thinking skills. Yet these cannot be taught in the absence of strong content, Hirsch argues. The consequence is a loss of shared knowledge that would enable us to work together, understand one another, and make coherent, informed decisions. A broken approach to school not only leaves our children under-prepared and erodes the American dream but also loosens the spiritual bonds and unity that hold the nation together. Drawing on early schoolmasters and educational reformers such as Noah Webster and Horace Mann, Hirsch charts the rise and fall of the American early education system and provides a blueprint for closing the national gap in knowledge, communications, and allegiance. Critical and compelling, How to Educate a Citizen galvanizes our schools to equip children with the power of shared knowledge.
