Description

The Politics of Sorrow provides a deep look into the emotional experiences of families following a homicide. Based on years of research with grief support organizations and the families of murdered children, this book examines how loss affects those left behind. It offers a comparative analysis of White and African-American families as they navigate the aftermath of tragedy. Readers will learn how class location and ethnicity shape the experience of mourning. The text examines the politics of sorrow by looking at how authorities, such as the police, provide different levels of emotional support to bereaved families. This work is a significant contribution to the study of sociology and anthropology regarding the micro-organization of youth homicide and the social structures surrounding grief.
