A panel discussion and Q&A on the ideas and work of Noam Chomsky, including his new book: The Myth of American Idealism with the book's co-author Nathan Robinson, who is also the editor-in-chief of Current Affairs magazine.
Speakers will examine Chomsky's critiques of U.S. foreign policy from Vietnam to Iraq to Gaza and discuss why his searing analysis of U.S. power remains vital and relevant.
The panel of speakers will be comprised of those who have worked with or been inspired by Chomsky's writings over the last 50 years:
Amy Goodman - Host of the independent global news program Democracy Now! since 1996, author of six books, winner of the I.F. Stone Medal for Journalistic Independence and the Gandhi Peace Award
Bev Stohl - ran Prof. Chomsky's office at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology for over 20 years and is the author of Chomsky and Me: A Memoir.
Greg Grandin - professor of history at Yale University, author of Kissinger's Shadow, Empire's Workshop, and Fordlandia: The Rise and Fall of Henry Ford's Forgotten Jungle City, which was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for History and the National Book Award.
Victor Pickard - Media studies professor, Annenberg School for Communication at the University of Pennsylvania, author of America’s Battle for Media Democracy: The Triumph of Corporate Libertarianism and the Future of Media Reform and Democracy Without Journalism?: Confronting the Misinformation Society.
