I think I was nine by this point in our history, and I can honestly say that I don't remember what happened in my immediate life during the attack. That being said, I am from the New York Metropolitan Area (though currently in college outside of said area), and I do know people who were involved in the incident, though I personally lost no family members or friends to the attack.

I wish I had more to say, but I feel it has already been said, especially Lal's statement against Al-Qaeda, and NOT the nation of Islam as a whole. I strongly advocate against blind ignorance, double standards, and for true equality, so I feel I should get that message out there.
