It's been a while, but it was a day that changed my life forever. People have shared time and time again exactly what they were doing when they got the news about the attack on American soil. 9/11 is here again and the overwhelming fear and anger is still as strong as it once was. The hate I grew that day is still in me. I was made a racist that day and I still can't get over it. Even though I've tried, I just can't get over the fact that they hate us that much. I can't even use a gas station that is owned by them without the hate coming to my first thoughts. For years the face of hate now surrounds us in our own country. I know they ain't all bad and I say this to say this. Those young adults are seeing a new face of hate and it is the white man with a gun. These people are painting us the new radical and unknowingly, these young adults are growing to be racist. Media made me feel this way and now that I am older I understand it. But the damage is already done.
So on this 9/11 I am going to a gas station to spend a little money and tell that dude I'm sorry. I now understand that he is just trying to live out the American dream.
