To Mend the World - Women Reflect on 9/11 (Paperback, 1st ed)

Cultural Writing. Current Affairs. Essays. A year after the attack on the United States, women of varied ethnic and religious backgrounds examine this question. Many of these writers grew up outside the U.S. and bring a world perspective to their responses. Some are U.S.-born but have been shaped by multi-cultural experiences. Consequently, the collection creates a unique mirror that reflects the U.S. from both inside and out, revealing the clash between the economically driven force of globalization embodied by the U.S. and the stateless, transnational terrorist organization that feeds on religious fundamentalism, poverty and hatred of the United States. These writers share a desire to open a world dialogue between cultures, between sexes, so we can prevent anything like the events of 9/11 from happening again anywhere in the world. Contributors include Toni Morrison, Julia Alvarez, Laura Nakazawa, Bipsi Sidhwa, Judy Dworkin Mahnaz Afkhami and others.
