Description
Fear This is Anthony Suau's first-hand documentation of the United States before, during, and after the recent war in Iraq. Suau has dedicated his career to documenting the effects of international events on the individual lives of people around the world. In Fear This, he lays bare a country divided, a nation confused as it tries to navigate through news hype, anxiety, facts, and fiction, while raising important questions regarding how public consent is generated and the role an omnipresent media plays in our culture.
