The culture of 9-11

The World

As time goes by, the images and tales of 9/11 are absorbed into mainstream culture. Jeff Melnick has studied that process as professor of American studies at Babson College near Boston. This year he put some of those thoughts into a book, called �9-11 Culture�. He speaks with anchor Marco Werman.

Do you support journalism that strengthens our democracy?

At The World, we believe strongly that human-centered journalism is at the heart of an informed public and a strong democracy. We see democracy and journalism as two sides of the same coin. If you care about one, it is imperative to care about the other.

Every day, our nonprofit newsroom seeks to inform and empower listeners and hold the powerful accountable. Neither would be possible without the support of listeners like you. If you believe in our work, will you give today? We need your help now more than ever!
