MSNBC Host Melissa Harris-Perry Says 9/11 Gave America an ‘Imagined’ Racial Enemy......

Imagined....I wonder if my friends who lost husbands would think so............

She noted that the terrorist attacks gave America a chance to shift its racial hate from “Reagan‘s ’welfare Queen’“ to another ”imagined“ racial enemy that was ”somehow Muslim, or Arab, or Sikh, or something else.” This gives Americans an ability to “stomach a kind of horrific racial violence in the name of national security,” which Harris-Perry notes is a repeating part of American “history.”
