"The first step to recovering the history of Western identity from the wreckage of the Grand Narrative is to understand that the narrative was not some revealed truth about Western civilization temporarily granted to American educators during the hegemony of the classical-assimilationist, meritocratic, and humanistic-version of American liberalism in culture and education, and then taken away again as that hegemony succumbed to political and cultural attack in the 1960s and following decades."
