How dense do you have to be? How far does one have to go to come up with stuff like this about the 9/11 terror attacks? Today is the 20th anniversary of that heinous day.
"White Americans might not have really felt true fear before 9/11 because they never felt what it meant to be accessible, vulnerable, and on the receiving side of military violence at home. But, white Americans' experiences are not a stand-in for 'America,'" she wrote.

Jenn m. jackson September 10, 2021 Plenty of us Americans know what it's like to experience fear and we knew before 9/11. For a lot of us, we know fear *because* of other Americans.
"We have to be more honest about what 9/11 was and what it wasn't. It was an attack on the heteropatriarchal capitalistic systems that America relies upon to wrangle other countries into passivity. It was an attack on the systems many white Americans fight to protect," Jackson added.
If you watch National Geographic's well-produced and harrowing six-episode series on the 9/11 attacks through the eyes of those who survived that terrible day, you'd tell this woman to screw off.
