911 incident he talks about how hyped up people were when the terror struck and terrorism was initiated. But for him this wasn’t the first terror attack. For him, terrorism started from the day slavery had started. The use of violence and brutality was happening before and right in front of everyone’s eyes which was being uncalled and unjustified for. People were not realizing that slavery itself was known as terrorism. Reading the book from a first person point of view showed so much…

Its very unavoidable to see this happen but media should not feed only on the extremists, but they should also focus on others who are doing outstanding jobs who are Muslims.

The question of the next couple of decades is privacy that important. Since 9/11 security has been a huge deal for our nation. Due to the more recent terrorist attacks the government has stepped up their game. With wiretap abilities, drones, and surveillance to name a few.
