Born in the U.S., Henry A. Giroux ended up at McMaster U. in my hometown of Hamilton, Ontario. Well into his seventies, he apparently still holds his position there as a professor of Scholarship in the Public Interest. History being his primary scholarly focus, he embraced Critical Race Theory early in his career, applying what …

Just watched a video posted today by Benny Johnson showing House Republican Kevin McCarthy at a bridge by the Mexican border which has apparently been the entry point of approximately 70,000 illegal immigrants over the last 7 weeks. Outraged that Alejandro Mayorkas, Secretary of Homeland Security, has continued to insist that the border is secure, …
As reported by the Washington Post in Mar., 2022, deportations of illegal migrants by Immigration and Customs Enforcement [ICE] fell drastically in 2021 as a direct result of the priorities imposed upon it by the Biden administration. That that year also saw record high border crossings would perhaps seem to validate Republican claims that the …
On Nov. 21, Not the Bee posted a video of a mother in what I believe is Frisco, Texas, addressing the school board responsible for her child’s education. Opening a book she obtained from the library of that child’s school, she begins to read a brazenly pornographic passage. Thirty seconds or so into her reading, …
In Sept., journalist Matt Orfalea produced two videos featuring various public figures, mostly politicians, who had dared question the integrity of the two most recent U.S. presidential elections. The first cited various Democrats claiming Trump’s 2016 victory was a sham. It included Joe Biden suggesting Trump was an “illegitimate president,” an opinion echoed by Kamala …
The following is but one of hundreds of newspaper articles I might use to make my point. On Oct. 28 of this year, my local newspaper printed an article by two Canadian university professors who had just published a book entitled “Has Populism Won?: The War on Liberal Democracy.” Implicit in the article is the …
The Federation for American Immigration Reform recently announced that approximately 5.5 million illegal immigrants have entered the U.S. since Biden took office. While 4.4 million were processed by border patrol, 1.1million entered the country utterly undetected. Quite aside from the fact that many of the latter were drug dealers and various other species of undesirables, …
As I have argued with my “liberal” acquaintances who seem overwhelmed by a need to vomit at the very mention of Donald Trump, I would have voted for him in 2020 were I an American, not as an endorsement of him personally but because of the demonstrable superiority of his policies on certain issues [ …
An article in the N.Y. Times of Sept. 3 by Michelle Goldberg begins with a quote from literary critic Christian Lorentzen which reads: “Hollywood movies are boring. Television is boring. Pop music is boring. The art world is boring. Broadway is boring. Books from big publishing are boring.” It is a sentiment which Goldberg clearly …
I have just re-read an article published in my local newspaper, the Hamilton Spectator, on June 2 of 2020. Written by Henry A. Giroux, a professor at McMaster University from which I graduated 40 or so years ago, it is a graphic manifestation of the simplistic, Neo-Marxist narrative that has apparently metastasized throughout Western Academia. …
