Requiem for the American Dream

Through interviews filmed over four years, Noam Chomsky unpacks the principles that have brought us to the crossroads of historically unprecedented inequality — tracing a half-century of policies designed to favor the most wealthy at the expense of the majority — while also looking back on his own life of activism and political participation. He provides penetrating insight into what may well be the lasting legacy of our time — the death of the middle class, and swan song of functioning democracy.
