Abstract


This research is dealing with suicide bombing incident which occurred on May 13, 2018, in Surabaya. Specifically, the incident happened at Santa Maria Tak Bercela church in Ngagel Street. This incident has triggered the solidarity of Arek Surabaya (popular term for Surabaya people). This solidarity is not merely emotional but also rational. The rationality is seen from various cultural actions for the sake of humanity to fight against terrorism which hurts many people in Surabaya. Furthermore, the solidarity of Arek Surabaya moves from the will of each individual to carry out a social movement for the common good.
