Acclaimed linguist, cognitive scientist and historian Noam Chomsky has been called one of the most radical thinkers of our time. Critical of contemporary state capitalism, neoliberalism and military intervention, he has long agitated for radical reform of U.S. foreign policy. Chomsky won’t be on hand for the screening of segments of his new documentary, Requiem for the American Dream—a series of uncompromising interviews with the progressive social critic. However, his editor and filmmaker Kelly Nyks will be present to participate in a question-and-answer session with attendees.
