9/11 Commission Report - A Graphic Adaptation (we could also read the original text but this plays with form)

Week Two: Environmentalism and Capitalism
Cadillac Desert: The American West and its Disappearing Water
Week Three: Restless and Uncertain
Week 4: NY/LA - City as Subject
Week 5: Religion, Morality, Modernity
God is Not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything
Things to keep in mind: I included links to the Amazon pages of each book so you can check out length, reviews, content etc. Please please feel free to suggest other works that would work with the thematic content of each week, or suggest an entirely new topic. I came up with the week headers in about 3 seconds so don't feel constricted or limited by their language. I think this could work really well with our class but please make suggestions about what you would like to read
