International Political Sociology Forum on Cynthia Weber’s Multi-media Project ‘I am an American’
“An unsentimental journey through America. Whatever kind of American you are, or however well you think you know Americans, this book is an eye-opener. I couldn’t put it down.”
"Anyone wanting to make claims to know what Americans think about their country and what American identity means today should meet the people Cynthia Weber met in her travels. A wide readership for this book could help raise the level of public discourse and the possibilities for civil exchange."—Catherine Lutz, Brown University, coauthor of The Counter-CounterInsurgency Manual
