Fearless Leadership in Education- A Response
“As an alternative-integral and radical in the field of education and philosophy, I respond to John T. Coleman, founder/director of the Apocatastasis Institute for the Humanities, where I am on faculty and direct The Fearology Center. John’s most recent video on the base curriculum and his inspiration from Ivan Illich and Patrick H. Pearse, intrigued me so much I wanted to make a link with things I also care about. I continue to learn from John and to see where he and I overlap on a good number of educational principles and ethics and directions, although clearly we don’t agree on everything.“
“A proud product of public education, John Coleman received his undergraduate degree in history from Western Connecticut State University. Alas, that was to be the end of his flattering academic titles. Unwilling to once again become a debt slave to usurers, his graduate studies were scotched at the half-way point. John wasted over a decade of his professional life attempting to establish a high school for a community who took neither themselves nor their worldview seriously. Burned by these unseemly experiences, on Holy Saturday of 2013 Apocatastasis Institute was founded.“
