Political Mourning: Identity and Responsibility in the Wake of Tragedy

Political Mourning: Identity and Responsibility in the Wake of Tragedy

Heather Pool
Role: Author

What leads us to respond politically to the deaths of some citizens and not others? This is one of the critical questions Heather Pool asks in Political Mourning. Born out of her personal experiences with the trauma of 9/11, Pool’s astute book looks at how death becomes political, and how it can mobilize everyday citizens to argue for political change.
