It has been 14 years now since terrorists attacked the United States on September 11, 2001, killing almost 3,000 people. It was one of the deadliest days in the nation’s history and its impact is still being felt today.
CCTV America’s Jim Spellman spoke about how Americans marked the 9/11 anniversary.
The terror attacks changed America. They resulted in more security at home and wars abroad. Within hours of the attacks one group of people in the United States was beginning to realize that 9/11 would change their lives too. How did that awful day impact American Muslims?
