Reading Susan Faludi: The Terror Dream: Fear and Fantasy in Post-9/11 America
-
- Susan Faludi
In her thought-provoking The Terror Dream: Fear and Fantasy in Post-9/11 America, local journalist Susan Faludi explores myths surrounding that fateful day. Faludi positions 9/11 in a long lineage of heteronormative responses to perceived threats. Comparing male firefighters to John Wayne's iconography and questioning the lack of visible female correspondents, Faludi exposes how the ideological manipulation of this national tragedy ultimately supported the conservative cultural shift that occurred in its wake.
