Noam Chomsky. Crisis and Hope-Theirs and Ours

Description

On June 12, 2009, Noam Chomsky gave a historic address at the Riverside Church in New York City. Captured here before an audience of more than 2,000 people, Chomsky offers a powerful analysis of the current economic crisis and its structural roots; the continuity in U.S. foreign policy under the Barack Obama administration; and the class interests driving U.S. domestic and foreign policy. Finally, he speaks at length about the tradition of worker self-management as a concrete alternative to the business-as-usual approach of corporations and the government during the current crisis. The film also features an introduction by Amy Goodman and an intimate interview with Noam Chomsky.
