When I imagined the terrorist attack on 9/11 I never once thought about what other people thought. And no one did. We never thought about the fact that one wrong look at someone could actually impact their life. Like the man in this case, Muhammed El Nasla would be checked for bombs because he was from the same place as the terrorists. Or he looked similar. And the people he worked with were to afraid to let the poor man work, all because he looked like a "terrorist."
I could never imagine how it would feel to have people treat me this way knowing that i wasn't the culprit. And of the people worried about there families like; Khaled Abou EL Fadl, he hoped that it wasn't someone he knew. But he couldn't always be sure.
I would never know what to do or know who's side I could be on until all of the racist, judge mental people were removed. This video really changed how I see people. And I will at least start one day at a time and I wont be so quickly to judge people. I hope these brave people are able o move on so their life has a chance to improve and move on.
