Noam Chomsky on “Crisis and Hope: Theirs and Ours”

Noam Chomsky the MIT professor, author and dissident intellectual, just turned eighty years old this past December. He has written over 100 books, but despite being called “the most important intellectual alive” by the New York Times, he is rarely heard in the corporate media. More than 2,000 people packed into Riverside Church in Harlem to hear his address. In his talk, Chomsky discussed the global economic crisis, the environment, wars in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan, resistance to American empire and much more.

This may be one of the most informative messages from "the last dissident", who says "humanity may now be entering its endgame".
