Henry Giroux Quotes About Understanding

• Occupy hizo algo fabuloso. Lo que Occupy dejó claro fue que existe una desigualdad en el corazón de la democracia estadounidense que la socava, si no la arruina. Eso sirvió para algo. Sugirió que necesitamos un nuevo lenguaje y una nueva forma de entender exactamente cómo la política deja fuera a la gente, especialmente a los jóvenes.

• Capitalism, in my estimation, is not about democracy. I think we're beginning to see an understanding of this. We see it in the Black Lives Matter movement. We see it among black youth who are now struggling and trying to make connections internationally with other groups and trying to figure out what's going on in the world and the ways things like police violence and systemic violence all come together under neoliberalism.

• Power is global and politics is local. That must change. We need a new language for understanding new global power formations as well as new international modes of politics to fight them. Social movements must move outside of national boundaries and join with others across the globe to fight the savagery of neoliberal global politics and central to such a task is the work of intellectuals, artists, cultural workers, and others who can fashion new tools and social movements in the fight against the current anti-democratic threats being imposed all over the globe.
