Henry Giroux on The Agenda


Henry Giroux, the Global Network Chair in English and Cultural Studies, appeared on TVO’s The Agenda Aug. 13.

The scholar and author discussed his book “The Violence of Organized Forgetting: Thinking Beyond America’s Disimagination Machine” with Piya Chattopadhyay.

During the show, Giroux argues that the United States’ embrace of a surveillance state and culture of violence have replaced the values of freedom, liberty and justice, putting American democracy in jeopardy.
