BOWLING GREEN, Ky. – Far-left radicals from the 1960s and ‘70s have made their way into America’s government schools to influence future generations of teachers and students.  The prime example is Bill Ayers.

Another is Mike Klonsky.  An Ayers associate in Students for a Democratic Society, Klonsky left the group in the late ‘60s to found the Communist Party (Marxist-Leninist).  Communist Party USA wasn’t radical enough for him.  He wanted a speedier revolution and cavorted with Chinese communists to meet that objective.

Klonsky and Ayers founded Small Schools Workshop in the 1990s to have a greater impact on the education system.  They dropped the radical pose to achieve the radical ends another way.  They donned coats and ties and began counting the years towards their government pensions.

And they worked the talk circuit to further influence the education culture and become more mainstream.

Conference planners, such as the recent one at Bowling Green State University, look the other way from Klonsky’s radical roots and give him the podium as a keynote speaker.  Companies like Coca Cola financially support the conferences.  Why?

Klonsky’s not just some aging radical, living vicariously through Occupy Wall Street.  He really is somebody.  When “Mike,” a blogger in 2008 on BarackObama.com was found out to be the former communist leader, he was promptly scrubbed from the site.

While it’s disturbing he would have such an obvious and close connect to Obama and his campaign, it’s even more disturbing that government universities welcome him in to spread his radical message.

Strangely, all that appears to exist from the conference is a single flyer with the details.  Given Klonsky’s radical past and associations with the likes of Ayers, it’s a bit ironic conference organizers also showed a film called, “Louder Than a Bomb.”

Radicals like Klonsky are doing great damage to America and for whatever reason, government universities and multi-national corporations like Coca Cola are giving him a platform.
