The book says 49.4 million American public school children are being trained to become Marxist revolutionaries.
“Today in America, we are living in a time of war. Our country has been invaded by communist forces that are training 49.4 million American public school children to become Marxist revolutionaries,” reads the introduction of a new book, Beneath Sheep’s Clothing, by Julie Behling, a former missionary to Russia in the late 90s.
Ms. Behling was a missionary in Russia in the late 90’s and attended graduate school at Florida State University from 2000–04 pursuing a dual master’s degree in Russian Languages & Literature (Slavic) and Russian & East European Studies.
In an interview with the Chinese language edition of The Epoch Times, Ms. Behling explained the motivation behind the book, “Beneath Sheep’s Clothing: The Communist Takeover of Culture in the USSR & Parallels in Today’s America.”
During her graduate study, Ms. Behling conducted research in Russia on the topic of underground Christians.
Speaking on the idea to write the book, she mentioned that an incident on American soil in 2008 surprised her: “It reminded me of the things I had researched with the Soviet Christians. There was an unpopular Christian, fringe Christian group here in America that had a militarized raid onto their premises. And then the government took all of their children from them with no due process.”
Infiltration on American Soils
Previously in her graduate research, she identified the three tactics generally employed by the Russian communists: oppression, infiltration, and propaganda in education and media.
The 2008 incident prompted her further research of communists on American soil. She found that communist infiltration in America has continued for nearly a century, along with anti-religious propaganda taking over education.
“Communist takeover of culture in America [has been happening] with all of the critical race theory, queer theory, gender theory and stuff in the education and in the media. And now, the evangelical churches have also been infiltrated with communism from the top down in America in the last 10 years,” said Ms. Behling.
With this realization, she started the book, which she finished about 80 percent of by 2011.
