Henry Giroux is an intellectual giant who has been a long-distance runner for truth and justice! This courageous and compassionate book deepens our grasp of our dark times. We are grateful for his light and life, work and witness!

Cornel West, author of "Race Matters" and "Democracy Matters"

Henry Giroux is an international treasure. This is not simply a book; it is a warning, a diagnosis, and, in its deepest register, an act of moral defiance. In a time when the future is increasingly treated as something to be managed, commodified, or feared, Giroux dares to recover it as something to be fought for. And that, in itself, is an act of profound hope.

Peter McLaren, Professor Emeritus, University of California, Los Angeles, USA

Henry Giroux never disappoints. He starts with something we care about-the future-and dissects how it is being threatened and how it can be saved. Critical intelligence and inspiration. Insight and hope.

This powerful book on the fascistic thrust and disastrous effects of Donald Trump's second term in office reminds us that only by collective civic resistance can we spare our democracy from continuing destruction. An urgently important book by one of our most brilliant social critics.

Jonathan Kozol, author of "Death of at Early Age"

Once again, Giroux shows why he is rightly acknowledged to be one of the most important critical scholars of our times. Turning his attention to the violence of disappearance, Giroux shows how the horrors that are so often consigned to dictatorships of the 20th century have become a central motif of the United States today.

Henry Giroux has few equals for the courage and vision with which he unsparingly examines the social and political catastrophe of our present. Equally admirable is his insistence that we nourish the radical, collective imagination needed for the making of a just and livable future.

Jonathan Crary, author of "Scorched Earth"
