Henry Giroux, renowned public commentator and professor at Canada's McMaster University, spoke with Forthright Radio host Joy LaClaire on 30 November 2017 about what happens to democracy when the president of the United States attacks the media and subjects scientists and scholars to a culture of shaming. 
Henry Giroux currently holds the McMaster University Chair for Scholarship in the Public Interest. He is the author of more than 65 books, has published more than 400 papers, in addition to hundreds of chapters in the books of others, as well as many essays and articles in such journals as Truthout, Truthdig, and CounterPunch. His works have been translated into numerous languages.

He is particularly interested in what he calls the war on youth, the corporatization of higher education, the politics of neo-liberalism, the assault on civic literacy and the collapse of public memory, public pedagogy, the educative nature of politics, and the rise of various youth movements across the globe.
