America faces a knowledge crisis that threatens democracy and daily life. Only twenty-six percent can name the three branches of government nearly half think antibiotics kill viruses and two-thirds don't understand compound interest. This isn't about intelligence but about practical knowledge needed for sound decisions and protection from manipulation. The consequences are everywhere - employers can't find skilled workers voters make uninformed decisions families fall for scams and democracy becomes vulnerable to those who exploit ignorance. Communities lose the shared knowledge that enables cooperation and progress. In The Knowledge Collapse Kevin B DiBacco exposes how misguided educational theories and cultural attitudes that celebrate ignorance have systematically dismantled America's knowledge base. More importantly he provides practical strategies for individuals families and communities to rebuild these essential intellectual foundations. This isn't another generational complaint but an urgent call to action backed by research and real solutions. The knowledge collapse is measurable the solutions exist and the question is whether we'll act while there's still time to reverse this dangerous trend. DiBacco is a filmmaker, author, and cultural observer who combines rigorous research with practical insights, making complex social issues accessible to readers who want to be part of the solution.
