‘Killing America’ Juxtaposes Woke Triangle: Dumbing-down, Indoctrination & Antisemitism 

Award-winning filmmaker Eli Steele has just produced a brand-new documentary to expose the insidious intersections among the critical ethnic studies movement, the war on academic excellence and anti-Semitism against the backdrop of the October 7 Massacre. Using California’s Bay Area as a snapshot in which the three illiberal trends converge into a major current of the culture war, Eli Steele’s Killing America is a must-watch if you want to understand the degree to which the woke ideology, along with its interlocking manifestations, has been institutionalized in K-12 classrooms. 

Steele’s captivating work features conversations with Bay Area parents and advocates on incidents of virulent antisemitism and attacks on meritocracy, free speech and radical curriculums in the local schools. It delves into the confluence of eliminating advanced classes and merit-based admissions, promoting the dogma of racial equity and teaching ethnic studies through the lens of critical race theory. The film explores in detail how various forces and influences within the educational system permitted this hate — which first targeted whites and Asians — to erupt with impunity in an allegedly “tolerant” place. It will be shown for the first time in a special pre-release screening at the Guild Theatre in downtown Menlo Park on Saturday, March 2^nd. 

For Steele, who is a prolific filmmaker and writer with a keen interest in investigating the thorny issue of race in American society, Killing America is an exposé and indictment of identity tribalism, the cultural obsession with race and the woke byproduct of intolerance. He commented: “What happened in southern Israel on October 7th shook the world in many ways. Most of us never imagined that the ripple effects would reach our public high schools in America, but they did and what they revealed was a shockingly strong current of antisemitism.”

With respect to his motivation behind making the documentary, Steele added: “This comes after years of anti-Asian and anti-white hate. Where was this tribal hatred coming from? After 60 years of diversity efforts, was this tribal hatred what we ended up with? How could that be? That is why I decided to do a deep dive investigation into the Bay Area schools and my documentary, Killing America, is the result.”

The special screening of Killing America will start at 6:30 pm in the Guild Theatre. A panel discussion will start at 8pm after the screening and the event will conclude at 9pm with a reception. Tickets can be purchased here.
