Noam Chomsky: "We shouldn't be looking for heroes, we should be looking for good ideas."


Democracy Now! did a recent feature on MIT Professor Noam Chomsky who gave a lecture in New York at an event sponsored by the Brecht Forum on June 12. According to DN host Amy Goodman, more than 2,000 people were in attendance at Riverside Church in Harlem to hear his address which was entitled Crisis and Hope: Theirs and Ours. In traditional Chomsky fashion his analysis was as all encompassing as ever as he discussed topics such as the global economic crisis, the environment, wars in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan, resistance to American empire and more.

You can watch his 6 part lecture below.
