No, it was not radicalization, but the feeling of "otherness." She carried it further than most. An extreme example of youth fantasy is in the movie "Beautiful Creatures," a true story that ended up in murder."Blond and freckled, “like Pippi Longstocking”, she recalls choosing brown crayons to draw pictures of herself with dark skin and curly hair, like the Bantu women she saw in National Geographic. She would hide in the garden, smear herself in mud, and fantasize that she had been kidnapped from Africa. What she describes as a profound sense of not belonging followed her to school, where the other children wore trainers and had Doritos in their packed lunches, not elk tongue sandwiches." At least she didn't decide to shoot up a classroom. |
