9/11: 20 Years On
September 11. 2001 was the first foreign attack on U.S. soil. Not long after, then U.S. President George W. Bush put forward an aggressive plan to retaliate against the perpetrators. It gave birth to the "war on terror," which has been a core component of U.S. foreign policy since. How has this war on terror impacted U.S. foreign policy and America's place in the world? Joining us to answer that question and dive into a look at 9/11 20 years on are Karen Greenberg, Director of the Center on National Security at Fordham University School of Law and the author of the forthcoming book, Subtle Tools: The Dismantling of American Democracy from the War on Terror to Donald Trump, Maha Hilal, the inaugural Michael Ratner fellow with the Institute for Policy Studies in Washington, D.C. and author of Innocent Until Proven Muslim: Islamophobia, the War on Terror, and the Muslim Experience Since 9/11, and Jamil Dakwar, BGIA professor and the Director of the ACLU's Human Rights Program. Via Zoom. RSVP required. For more information, call 845-758-6822, e-mail [email protected],
