According to MSNBC Host Melissa Harris-PerryMSNBC Host Melissa Harris Perry Says 9/11 Gave America an Imagined Racial Enemy
9/11 vaulted America into a “nationalist fervor” that was similar to “having post-traumatic stress disorder”
Makes racial joke about African-American men wearing NYPD hats
9/11 provided an opportunity for a new “racial enemy” in America
America “identifies who we are…through our notions of whiteness and of the racial enemies that are the non-whites”
9/11 gave America a chance to shift its racial hate from “Reagan‘s ’welfare Queen’“ to ”imagine” our enemy as ”somehow Muslim, or Arab, or Sikh, or something else.”
Americans an ability to “stomach a kind of horrific racial violence in the name of national security”
Those that are “activating terrorism against us” are “imagined racial enemies”
During a speaking engagement Monday, MSNBC host Melissa Harris-Perry made some startling accusation concerning 9/11 and Americas War on Terror. Perry, who anchors The Melissa Harris-Perry show on the weekends, remarked that 9/11 vaulted America into a “nationalist fervor” that was similar to “having post-traumatic stress disorder.”
The former neighbor to President Obama even used a racial joke to make her point, saying she knew the city was suffering from PTSD because “for about a year, there were African-American men walking around the city of New York with NYPD hats on. That can only be explained as a PTSD response.”
The Tulane Professor of Political Science continued, noting that 9/11 provided an opportunity for a new “racial enemy” in America, explaining:
“Americans in part identify who we are, and who deserves what, through our notions of whiteness and of the racial enemies that are the non-whites.”
