The Politics of Victimhood: Two Sisters on 9/11, National Memory, and Tragedy as a Spectacle

Two sisters Ellie and Carrie Monahan (the former a millennial, the latter on the Gen Z cusp) analyze topics like fame by proxy, sleep-away camp in the American imagination, their adolescence of Carnegie Hill etiology, Sontag's portents of the influencer economy, dialectical thinking, cyberbullies, the enduring power of Madame Alexander dolls, and more. Done through a sometimes academic, often solipsistic lens. They love each other, and love you for listening.
