Bari Weiss, the liberal journalist forced out from the New York Times for not being radical enough, has written perhaps the most important article of the still-young year. In “The Miseducation of America’s Elites,” published March 9 in the City Journal, Weiss reports on the devastatingly dangerous thought-policing now infecting schools across the country.

Weiss’ focus is on elite prep schools, but she notes that the same stultifying orthodoxy infects public schools as well.
