What's Wrong with Global Culture?

GLOBAL CULTURE
means A.) American Imperialism; megaconglomerate dominance; B.) the destruction of American identity; C.) both.

The U.S. boozh-why-zee sitting in comfortable armchairs in Manhattan or Connecticut empathizing with people halfway around the world-- or with mad terrorists in Guantanamo-- is an excuse for them to ignore the triumphs and tragedies in their own country. The subject of American literature is AMERICA-- a big enough topic for anyone.
