Reflections: My Life, My Country Seven Years after 9/11: A Series of Essays from Across America

Reflections: My Life, My Country Seven Years after 9/11, aims to capture the thoughts and feelings of people across America about how their lives have been affected, directly or indirectly, by the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001.There is a strong sense that something changed not just on that day but in the weeks, months and years since the attacks. Many of us also find ourselves unable to quantify what that change has been.This feeling has inspired Citizens for Global Solutions to try and capture that feeling in a collective way.It is our hope that these essays, taken together, will give us all a better idea of exactly what this change has been, and what it means to Americans across the country.

Citizens for Global Solutions is a grassroots membership organization with a long history of foreign policy advocacy. Through this advocacy, the organization has been able to educate Americans on the global threats and challenges that affect us all, and connect these global issues to local concerns in communities across the country.
