In Lynched: A Conservative s Life on a New York City School Board, Frank Borzellieri documents his eleven years as the only conservative and Eurocentrist on this ultra-liberal school board. In these pages, he documents how the New York City political and educational establishments tried their best to destroy his career for daring to speak the truth about the racial, cultural and educational issues that are destroying this country. For the leftists on the school board and in the establishment, it was not enough to defeat Frank on policy. They were determined to silence him completely and destroy his career. As far as Frank s detractors were concerned, one voice of dissent was one too many. Lynched reveals: *The battle against multiculturalism - how Frank exposed and fought against anti-American multicultural materials in the schools which spouted horrible attacks against Western culture. *Frank s constant need of police and security escorts to and from school board meetings because of threats against him. *While the school board used tax dollars to fund books like I Hate English and Jambo Means Hello: the Swahili Alphabet, they blocked Frank s attempts to add 15 pro-American books to classrooms and libraries like Paul Revere s Ride. *The school board was funding programs for illegal third-world aliens which Frank tried to stop. *Frank voted against all funding for bilingual education in a district where children could barely read and write in English. *Frank s resolution was defeated that would require that the district s books and curriculum emphasize the superiority of Western culture -- stating, for example, that free market capitalism was superior to communism, and George Washington superior to Che Guevera. *Frank s struggle to stop ebonics (black English) from infiltrating the school district. *Frank Borzellieri was the only voice trying to stop the grotesque homosexual infiltration into District 24. When a radical homosexual district teacher was discussing his perversions in front of his fourth grade class, Frank Borzellieri was alone in trying to stop him. *Reckless liberal spending in the district was out of control, with Frank Borzellieri the only school board member to oppose all federal monies as unconstitutional.

This book should be read by everyone that is interested in our government school systems. As a former school board member, I can attest to the fact that this treatment is alive and well in all school districts. People need to know what is being taught. They need to know how most board members get elected. The union and the left control our schools.

A very interesting insiders view of a very liberal school board. Mr Borzellieri was outnumbered but he had more guts than the rest of the board combined. He does a good job of exposing the mendacity and hypocrisy of Liberals. Too bad they will never make this into a Hollywood movie.

Great for kindling if you ever need it

Reviewed in the United States on January 21, 2020

I never understood why a man who spouts racist homophobic nonsense is somehow revered as sticking it to the liberals. This self-aggrandizing book full of misinformation really lets you peer into the mind of a man who was fired for writing in support of white supremacy. I am sure the friends he made from those writings is where he is getting all his 5-star reviews from

Brave Man, Great Writer exposes hypocrisy of liberals

Reviewed in the United States on February 23, 2009

Although people in general know that the public school system in America is a disaster and is dominated by liberals, this fantastic book reveals the true details of how liberals on this New York City school board are anti-American to the core and impose their corrupted values on the education system.
Frank Borzellieri's writing is informative, riveting and often hilarious as he exposes the hypocrisy of liberals. For example, Borzellieri opposes books that denigrate Western culture, but the school board funded these multicultural books and put them in the classrooms. But when Borzellieri proposed adding a biography of George Washington, the school board banned it! That is absolutely incredible! They also banned a book about the Battle of Lexington and Concord and Daniel Boone, but allowed a book called "Jambo Means Hello: the Swahili Alphabet."
Borzellieri also reveals how he got no help at all from the school board when he tried to stop a gay teacher from discussing his homosexuality in front of his class. The details in this book are depressing but very indicative of the state of public education.
One of the interesting chapters is when Borzellieri proposed a resolution stating that American culture was superior to other cultures, like those which practice female genital mutilation. The liberals opposed him on that, too. Borzellieri was very specific. The resolution said that capitalism was superior to communism and that freedom of religion was superior to religious oppression - but the school board was even against that! I couldn't believe what I was reading.
Because of his outspoken conservative values, Borzellieri tells of how he needed the police to follow him home because he received threats against his safety. He also voted against bilingual education, stating that it kept foreign children from learning English. Naturally, he was opposed by the liberals on that, too.
Borzellieri bravely goes after his detractors, calling board members "white liberal hypocrites" because they all lived in white neighborhoods even though they kept claiming to love racial integration. A hilarious section in the back of the book shows photos of board members with their voting records, revealing their extreme liberalism. Great stuff!
I have read all of Frank Borzellieri's books (including The Unspoken Truth: Race, Culture and Other Taboos and Don't Take It Personally: Race, Immigration, Crime and Other Heresies) and have been a big fan for many years. In this latest book, he is at his best. "Lynched" is a must read for American patriots who want to read about what actually happened on the inside of a New York City school board.
Frank Borzellieri is a man of great courage. Buy this book!

He Speaks for the Silent Majority

Reviewed in the United States on March 17, 2009

This is a one of a kind book, the likes of which I have never read before. The author tells the story of what it was really like to be a committed outspoken conservative on a school board in New York surrounded by liberals. Frank Borzellieri is not your typical establishment conservative. He is really a Eurocentric libertarian. I hardly know where to begin in praising this book. Each chapter is devoted to a separate controversial issue in which Borzellieri was "lynched" by his fellow school board members. Typical is the chapter when the board voted to ban Borzellieri's list of books from the schools - this included a biography of George Washington! How a school board in the United States, and in New York City no less, can ban a book on Washington and get away with it is beyond me.

Through it all, Borzellieri documents how he was defiant in standing up to all those liberals. He makes the point consistently that the biggest culprits were white liberals from white conservative neighborhoods who ignored the values of their neighbors in order to suck up to the politically correct establishment. Borzellieri's contempt for that group especially comes through.

Then there were his battles to stop multiculturalism and bilingualism. He relates a story of a Hispanic activist who came to a school board meeting and issued a veiled threat to Borzelllieri if he didn't resign from the board. Borzellieri dared him to beat him on election day. Great stuff! He then used the man's threatening letter to raise money for his re-election campaign. (By the way, despite establishment opposition to him, Borzellieri was always the top vote getter.)

All in all, the book is written in a delightfully engaging and enjoyable manner. Borzellieri has a biting sense of humor as he sticks it to the liberals on the school board. There is a funny section in the back with photos of the board members and their liberal voting records.

Finally, this book should give us pause as to whether or not we should tolerate the harassment and attempts to silence an elected official, just because he has a conservative point of view. I highly recommend this book as a crucial story that needs to be read and told.

Time and money well spent...

Reviewed in the United States on October 31, 2017

A rare personal look at the exploits of a fighter inside the heavily oppressive and politically biased world of the NYC education system. This is very well written book with a lot of good humor, blazing vitriol, and fine examples of courage. I found it rather inspirational.

Reviewed in the United States on May 7, 2014

Very few facts. Very biased. Not worth the time it took to read it. I'd rather have spent the time watching FOX News, they're less biased.
