Edward Griffin. In it he quotes a conversation he had\nwith&nbsp;Rowan Gaither, the president of the Ford Foundation, who stated that\nthey operated under directives to \u201cuse our grant-making power so to alter life\nin the United States so it can be comfortably merged with the Soviet Union.\u201d\nGaither came to Ford out of the OSS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dodd\u2019s staff\nwas also given access to the minutes of the&nbsp;Carnegie Endowment for\nInternational Peace. This Foundation was chartered in 1906, by the Scottish\nborn magnate Andrew Carnegie (1835&nbsp;\u20131919). Carnegie\u2019s early large fortune\nwas made in munitions, railroad, and the war business during the American Civil\nWar. He was a proponent of laissez-faire economics. That is with the exception\nof tariffs which benefited his industries. Carnegie believed that the\nconcentration of capital into the hands of oligarchs was essential for societal\nprogress, and should be encouraged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dodd sent a\nhighly intelligent, capable lawyer by the name of Catherine Casey to examine\nthe Carnegie minutes. Because of the sheer size of the documents, Dodd realized\nthat Joseph Johnson (Carnegie COO) did not know what was in the records. Dodd\nsent Casey because she was skeptical of any wrong doing on the part of these\nmulti million dollar tax exempt philanthropic organizations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Casey\u2019s mind\nwas changed as she read the minutes starting in 1908 which discussed war as the best way to alter the\nlives and thinking of the American people. In 1909, it was discussed how\nto involve the U.S. in a war, deciding that control of the State Department was\nessential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Later, after\nAmerica entered WWI a message was dispatched to President Wilson to discourage an early end to the war.\nThis could also explain Wilson\u2019s interest in the UN (then the League of\nNations), Federal Reserve, the income tax and his final statement:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSince I\nentered politics, I have chiefly had men\u2019s views confided to me privately. Some\nof the biggest men in the U.S., in the field of commerce and manufacturing, are\nafraid of somebody, are afraid of something. They know that there is a power\nsomewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so\npervasive, that they had better not speak above a whisper in condemnation of\nit.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After the War\nit was determined that the key was alteration in the teaching and narrative of\nAmerican history. Noted and respected historians like Charles and Mary Beard\nwere approached, but they rejected the foundation\u2019s overtures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The\nGuggenheim Foundation on the other hand agreed to supply fellowships to\nhand-picked historians who began to write history with a new slant and delusive\nperspective. The new texts and books were quickly picked up by schools who in\nturn received payoffs from the Guggenheim and Carnegie foundations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The American\nHistorical Association was captured by Foundation money and in 1934, a report\nwas published under its auspices which concluded that the day of the individual\nin the United States had come to an end and that the future would be\ncharacterized, inevitably, by some form of collectivism and an increase in the\nauthority of the State.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Reece\nReport itself revealed, \u2018<em>the Committee shed light on the big foundations\u2019\npromotion of empiricism, centralized<\/em>&nbsp;team research<em>, big\nuniversities over small colleges, moral relativism, internationalism, and\nsocial engineering<\/em>.

The minutes reveal conclusively that the responsibility for the\neconomic welfare of the American people had been transferred heavily to the\nExecutive Branch of the Federal Government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The most\nheavily funded schools were Columbia, Harvard, Univ. of Chicago, and Cal-Berkeley\nwho were in turn stacked with Frankfurt School <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newnationalist.net\/2017\/07\/22\/cultural-marxism-runs-amok-on-campus-part-i\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">cultural Marxist<\/a> foreign Jew emigrees and in time their\nstudents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Objectives\nwere to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Direct education in the United\n     States toward an internationalist view-point and discrediting the\n     traditions to which, it [formerly) had been dedicated.<\/li><li>Transform education into an\n     instrument for social change<\/li><li>Training individuals and\n     servicing agencies to render advice to the Executive branch of the Federal\n     Government.<\/li><li>Decreasing the dependency of\n     education upon the resources of the local community and freeing it from\n     many of the natural safeguards inherent in this American tradition .<\/li><li>Changing both school and\n     college curricula to the point where they sometimes denied the principles\n     underlying the American way of life.<\/li><li>Financing experiments designed\n     to determine the most effective means by which education could be pressed\n     into service of a political nature.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Later,\nincredibly, the Carnegie Foundation even went so far as to conduct a series of\npolls to gauge the extent of their capture of American higher education.

In 1952 alone,\nwhen the chairman of the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sourcewatch.org\/index.php\/RAND_Corporation\">RAND Corporation<\/a>&nbsp;was also the Ford Foundation\npresident, Ford gave one million dollars to RAND.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe Council\non Foreign Relations, another member of the international complex, financed\nboth by the Rockefeller and Carnegie foundations, overwhelmingly propagandizes\nthe globalist concept. This\norganization became virtually an agency of the government when WWII broke out.\nThe Rockefeller Foundation had started and financed certain studies known as\nthe War and Peace Studies, manned largely by associates of the Council [CFR];\nthe State Department, in due course, took these studies over, retaining the\nmajor personnel which the CFR had supplied\u201d.pg 209<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Ford\nFoundation came into fray after WWII and pushed the same agenda on a worldwide\nbasis.
