Fugitive Cultures examines how youth are being increasingly subjected to racial stereotyping and violence in various realms of popular culture; especially childrens culture. But rather than dismissing popular culture; Henry Giroux addresses its political and pedagogical value as a site of critique and learning and calls for a reinvigorated critical relationship between cultural studies and those diverse cultural workers committed to expanding the possibilities and practices of democratic public life.

Wonderful essays that are so touching. If you have ever loved an animal; the following words of Suzanne Clothier (p.56) will have profound meaning for you: "There is a cycle of love and death that shapes the lives of those who choose to travel in the company of animals. It is a cycle unlike any other. To those who have never lived through its turnings or walked its rocky path; our willingness to give our hearts with full knowledge that they will be broken seems incomprehensible. Only we know how small a price we pay for what we receive; our grief; no matter how powerful it may be; is an insufficient measure of the joy we have been given."This book is a must for any dog lover.19 of 19 people found the following review helpful. 82 years of loveBy dorothy twomblyright now I have two senior doggies. they are both 14 years young. before these babies came to me .my four footed baby left me at 15.i still miss him.soon I will have to say goodbye again.1 am 82 years old but when these babies leave me I will not go on alone.i will find a senior doggies who needs a home I will need him or her more.7 of 7 people found the following review helpful.
