Media Reviews

When one hears the word terrorism, many do not think state-side events. Within the textbook, Terrorism Inside America’s Borders, several hot topics are highlighted, and these events show how the lives of Americans and their view of terrorism have changed. This is a timely compilation of material to further explain the far-reaching grasp terrorism has on the United States. -- Rosalyn D. Harrington, Winston-Salem State University
Despite what is going globally during these unprecedented times, this book sheds light on the real issues we are facing in real time. Systemic racism, social injustice, poverty, and a broken criminal justice system are all acts of terrorism -- Tenisha T. Stevens, Criminal Justice Commissioner, Office of Mayor LaToya Cantrell, City of New Orleans
