What Mass Shootings Tell Us About America

FEATURING HENRY GIROUX - The horrific mass shootings in Uvalde, Texas, and Buffalo, New York, revealed that no one–whether elderly Black people in a supermarket or 10-year old Latino children at school–are safe from gun violence in America. While this is clearly a failure of our gun policies and of a misplaced faith in policing, it also indicates a deeper rot in American society.

Henry Giroux writes in Truthout, “what is ignored is a neoliberal economic system that feeds on self-interest, inequality, cruelty, punishment, precarity and loneliness.”
