Jennifer and Jacques talk about the blatant infiltration of military agendas in our education system, with resourcing from the federal government.     This is in the context of the de-funding of our universities, particularly many humanities departments and subjects that involve critical thinking. Most recently, the ‘culture wars’ have been reignited, as the government wants a white, imperialist triumphal version of history to be taught in schools, which garners support for future wars as well as the weapons industry.    Jacques and Jennifer propose that, as a nation, we would do better to resource social and environmental sustainability and public health, rather than weaponry and war mongering. Ref:Minors and missiles: Weapons companies in schools Activism:Australian Living Peace MuseumRaucous anti-AUKUS caucus - convened by Renegade Activists
