WSJ Column Argues America Has Entered a Post-Literate Era
Original: America's Post-Literate Era https://www.wsj.com/opinion/americas-post-literate-era-ddb504b0?mod=rss_opinion # Society #
A Wall Street Journal opinion piece argues that the United States has entered a 'post-literate era,' suggesting that reading and sustained literacy are losing their central place in American culture, displaced by visual and short-form media. The claim touches on education, society, and culture, and has drawn attention among readers debating the state of literacy and attention in the digital age.
Why now: Concerns about declining reading habits and literacy in the age of screens and short-form video keep striking a nerve.
