"Luke Rosiak is an absolutely indispensable reporter, and in his new book, he proves why once again. Americans should be able to expect that the schools to which they send their children aren’t indoctrination centers dominated by special interests—but they can’t. Rosiak’s exploration of our failing K–12 system is a damning and deserved indictment.”  — Ben Shapiro

“What you saw with teachers unions’ school closures and what you’ve heard about critical race theory is only the tip of the iceberg. If you want to preserve a good life for your kids—and yourself—you need to understand what’s in this book. The stories Luke tells are wild . . . and, unfortunately, all too true.” — Mark Levin

"Luke Rosiak exposes the complex network of activists, unions, bureaucrats, and philanthropists who are hell-bent on racializing the American education system and indoctrinating students with left-wing ideologies. This book is an essential read for parents, educators, and citizens who care about the future of American education. It’s high time for our country to get back to basics, and Race to the Bottom provides a road map for returning to sanity in our schools." — Christopher F. Rufo

“Race to the Bottom pulls no punches. It offers a raw, honest, and evidence-based account of the crisis that has beset our educational intuitions. It is not hyperbole to say that generations of students have been robbed of a genuine education and cognitively damaged because of a system that’s been captured by ideology. Every parent would be wise to read this book.” — Peter Boghossian

“Luke Rosiak is American public education’s only investigative journalist. The pandemic started to open parents’ eyes to the corruption of K–12 education, but any mom or dad who cares to see to the core must read Race to the Bottom. Government schools have fallen under the sway of deep-pocketed institutions advancing an ideology that disdains achievement and degrades the soul. But it’s not too late for parents to fight back. Knowledge is power, and Rosiak’s landmark book will help give parents the power they so desperately need.” — Max Eden
