Episode 10: Open Education Under Fascism

Students in higher education in the United States are bearing more of the costs of their education, even in "public" colleges and universities, going deeply into debt, and suffering appalling levels of housing and food insecurity ... all while the costs of commercial textbooks increase at many times the rate of inflation. Open educational resources are a powerful response to these ills, using Creative Commons licenses to get free -- and often better, more adaptable! -- learning materials into the hands of students. Open education can be thought of as a kind of positive analogue of the previously discussed Weapons of the Weak in the battle against fascism.
