Giroux

Giroux talks about corporations becoming the makers of curriculum and omitting the wrongs and injustices that have been done by big business over the years. Textbook companies are already under pressure to to issue out the most non-controversial versions of history in order to maintain the widest distribution and printing. Is it possible to instill a school curriculum that teaches scrutiny in a system that is increasingly becoming for profit?

Or, will it ultimately be up to individual teachers?

What kind of consequences then do educators face in teaching these lessons?
