Surviving the 2nd Intifada: The Intergenerational Trauma of Terrorism.
Growing up in Israel during the 2nd intifada, Miri never realized she was traumatized because the abnormal was normal. The fear of taking the bus because it could explode, opening the newspaper to find names of people who died in an attack, serving in the army and knowing that she’d know someone who would be killed. She never gave the normalization of missiles and having a safe room at home and a shelter in a playscape a thought while living there. Only after moving to the US to get her doctorate did she realize how the reality she grew up in was different. That is why she researched trauma related to terrorism and wrote a therapy book for children who were victims of attacks.
