• W129718036 abstract "When the American Legion set out to help bring down one of the Progressive Era’s most prominent progressive educators, Harold Rugg, it did so out of a long-standing conviction that any form of antiAmericanism must be met head on and extinguished in the most expedient manner. Legion members, ever alert to anti-American rhetoric, believed that they had discovered a genuine threat disguised as an educator, whose goal was to turn red-blooded American children away from democratic principles and towards a malevolent political and economic system (i.e., communism) that could bring America to her knees. Rugg, they believed, would accomplish this task through his textbook series aimed at public school children. The heightened patriotism of World War II is the historical context for the American Legion’s attack on progressive education. In 1941, as the United States prepared for war, the Legion was busy writing and distributing pamphlets titled The Complete Rugg Philosophy, which, according to Legion officials, outlined Rugg’s plan to indoctrinate students away from what it termed Americanism and toward socialism or even communism. These pamphlets were not the only vehicles for Legion writers. The American Legion Magazine was also a forum for the conservative ideas of Rugg’s detractors. To writers whose articles condemned the Rugg materials, the curriculum that Rugg offered American youth was a “bootlegged” curriculum. Rugg, attacked by the American Legion for spreading un-American ideas through his writings, has yet to be completely understood in terms of his philosophy and where it figures into his textbook writings. His materials were condemned, yet the un-American rhetoric in Rugg materials seems to be lacking. Where did the American Legion get the idea in the first place that Rugg’s philosophy leaned in the direction of Stalin’s Soviet Union? Where are the clues that will help us to understand under what circumstances the Rugg philosophy developed or emerged? In order to assess the nature of the Legion’s attack on Rugg, this article examines the American Legion’s publication, The American Legion Magazine, from 1941 until the advent of Sputnik, and its pamphlet series titled The Complete Rugg Philosophy. The prevailing progressive educational climate and the scope of progressive thought will also be examined in order to clarify Rugg’s role within progressive education. Additionally, the origins of the American Legion and its stated goals and purpose provide a framework for understanding the intense and systematic attack the Legion launched against Harold Rugg. These origins help to explain two main questions. First, why was Rugg seemingly singled out? Second, why was the Legion so dedicated to Rugg’s downfall?" @default.
