Recently, American youth have demonstrated en masse about a variety
of issues ranging from economic injustice and massive inequality to
drastic cuts in education and public services. Youth in Revolt
chronicles the escalating backlash against dissent and peaceful
protest while exposing a lack of governmental concern for society's
most vulnerable populations. Henry Giroux carefully documents a
wide range of phenomena, from pervasive violent imagery in our
popular culture to educational racism, censorship, and the growing
economic inequality we face. He challenges the reader to consider
the hope for democratic renewal embodied by Occupy Wall Street and
other emerging movements. Encouraging a capacity for critical
thought, compassion, and informed judgment, Giroux's analysis
allows us to rethink the very nature of what democracy means and
what it might look like in the United States and beyond.
