This was supposed to be an interview about how neoliberalism poisons higher education, but it turned into an interview about how neoliberalism poisons everything – our thoughts, our values, our democratic system. Henry Giroux just lays waste to the privatization of the public good, explains why an education is more than just a line on a resume, brings up C. Wright Mills and Hannah Arendt, tears down the toxic version of freedom pushed on us by the ruling class.
Author and cultural critic Henry Giroux holds the Global Television Network Chair in English and Cultural Studies. Henry’s newest book is Neoliberalism’s War on Higher Education.
