About Book

Terrorism in America challenges the common perception of terrorism being solely a Middle Eastern phenomenon, especially with the stereotype of Muslim terrorists. Brenda J. Lutz explores how Americans, both historically and in contemporary times, have been involved in terrorist activities, sometimes as perpetrators and other times as victims. By analyzing historical incidents, Lutz illustrates how domestic terrorism in America has shaped the country's social and political landscape. This book offers a nuanced perspective on terrorism, showing that it is not confined to foreign groups or nations but is deeply embedded in American history itself.
