Scholars, experts, advocates and community leaders gathered to raise awareness on the continued battles to reclaim the fundamental American values of equality, freedom and merit. They shared sights and experiences on the timely topics of defending equal justice in California, combatting indoctrination in education, and promoting truth seeking amidst the ideological invasion of illiberalism.

On September 3, 2022, CFER held its first annual conference "Fighting Preferences & Indoctrination in Education" in San Diego, California. Our inaugural event brought together a prestigious group of intellectuals, advocates, policy practitioners/makers and community leaders who study and/or promote public policy issues related to equality, race and merit. Together, the participants explored the current state of public education, ramifications of various progressive ideological proposals in the American education, and proven strategies to counterbalance the illiberal trend of indoctrination in our nation's K-16 schools, at the national, state and local levels.
