Face to Face

After hearing a lot responses to the aftermath of 9/11 and Pearl Harbor it was very saddening. Many people were affected by these tragedies and it was hard to deal with because all the fear, anger, and loss. Humans were targeted by the FBI based on their name, skin color, and ethnicity. Naturally, the humans with arabic, muslim, and japanese backgrounds were targeted and made into the enemy. After tragedies like these it's understandable to want to find the reason behind it and make sure it never happens again. But it was eye opening to listen to how much the FBI knew about anyone they wished to investigate. They knew who your family was, what job you held, the income you made, everything that basically made up your life. It was sad to hear how people with these backgrounds were mistreated by others simply based on their race. I couldn't imagine how awful it might have been to be made the enemy simply based on my skin color, and I wish people were more understanding and considerate.
