To see poor people, their benefits being cut, to see pensions of Americans who have worked like my father, all their lives, and taken away, to see the rich just accumulating more and more wealth. I mean, it seems to me that there has to be a point where you have to say, ‘No, this has to stop.’ (Henry Giroux Quotes)

Even the notion that, you know,[Bill] Clinton was the black president strikes me as the greatest irony of all times. (Henry Giroux Quotes)
Since the 1970s, we have witnessed the forces of market fundamentalism strip education of its public values, critical content, and civic responsibilities as part of its broader goal of creating new subjects wedded to consumerism, risk-free relationships, and the destruction of the social state. (Henry Giroux Quotes)
Within neoliberal narratives, the message is clear: Buy/ sell/ or be punished (Henry Giroux Quotes)
Young people refuse the notion that financialization defines the only acceptable definition of exchange, one that is based exclusively on the reductionist notion of buying and selling. (Henry Giroux Quotes)
The new elites have no allegiances to nation states and don’t care about the damage they do to workers, the environment, or the rest of humanity. They are unhinged sociopaths, far removed from what the Occupy Movement called the 99 percent.’ (Henry Giroux Quotes)
A citizen is a political and moral agent who in fact has a shared sense of hope and responsibility to others and not just to him or herself. (Henry Giroux Quotes)

Long-term planning and the institutional structures that support them are now relegated to the imperatives of privatization, deregulation, flexibility and short-term profits. (Henry Giroux Quotes)
The freedom and human capacities of individuals must be developed to their maximum but individual powers must be linked to democracy in the sense that social betterment must be the necessary consequence of individual flourishing (Henry Giroux Quotes)
Getting ahead cannot be the only motive that motivates people. You have to imagine what a good life is (Henry Giroux Quotes)

Collective freedom provides the basic conditions for people to narrate their own lives, hold power accountable, and embrace a capacious notion of human dignity (Henry Giroux Quotes)
The new illiteracy is about more than not knowing how to read the book or the word; it is about not knowing how to read the world (Henry Giroux Quotes)

The curriculum sent the clear message to me that learning was a highly individualistic, almost secretive, endeavor. My working class experience... was disparaged (Henry Giroux Quotes)
Cinema is consistently making a claim to particular memories, histories, ways of life, identities, and values that always presuppose some notion of difference, community, and the future. Given that films both reflect and shape public culture, they cannot be defined exclusively through a notion of artistic freedom and autonomy that removes them from any form of critical accountability (Henry Giroux Quotes)
