Ten-year-old Emma was a happy, normal little girl who absolutely adored her little sister, Mandy. Everything was perfect until one day when it all changed. Emma's life was set on a course of heartbreak, fear, and pain. She couldn't understand how the Lord could allow her and her sister to go through so much. Even after she grew up, the pain and heartache kept coming to Emma. She asked for his forgiveness and gave her life to him. Emma didn't know God had been closing doors not meant for her and her life. She had to go through hell to fully appreciate what God was about to bless her with. In the end, Emma could see how much the Lord truly loves her and all of his children. She now understands why God closes doors not meant for us. We need to be patient and stay in faith that he is going to fulfill our destiny. "I know thy works, behold I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it, for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name" (Revelation 3:8).

The global icon is an omnipresent but poorly understood element of mass culture. This book asks why audiences around the world have embraced particular iconic figures, how perceptions of these figures have changed, and what this tells us about transnational relations since the Cold War era. Prestholdt addresses these questions by examining one type of icon: the anti-establishment figure. As symbols that represent sentiments, ideals, or something else recognizable to a wide audience, icons of dissent have been integrated into diverse political and consumer cultures, and global audiences have reinterpreted them over time. To illustrate these points the book examines four of the most evocative and controversial figures of the past fifty years: Che Guevara, Bob Marley, Tupac Shakur, and Osama bin Laden. Each has embodied a convergence of dissent, cultural politics, and consumerism, yet popular perceptions of each reveal the dissonance between shared, global references and locally contingent interpretations. By examining four very different figures, Icons of Dissent offers new insights into global symbolic idioms, the mutability of common references, and the commodification of political sentiment in the contemporary world.
