Interesting discussion between Liza Featherstone and Kristen R. Ghodsee about dystopian Sci-Fi and American education:
From Alduous Huxley’s Brave New World to George Orwell’s 1984 to Lois Lowry’s The Giver, dystopian stories dominate school reading lists. ... As Ghodsee argues ... “The message of these books is loud and clear: you may be unhappy with the way things are but forget about trying to change them.”
