Prohibition Indoctrination, WCTU, Anti-Alcohol Propaganda
A clip from a Ken Burns documentary on Prohibition illustrates how the Women's Christian Temperance Union (WCTU) used schools to indoctrinate children against alcohol. Mary Hunt is highlighted for lobbying for mandatory temperance classes that taught children lurid misinformation about physical health. The hosts draw a direct parallel between this historical propaganda and modern climate change education.
