Looking back to 9/11 and taking stock of where we are today, this discussion will explore Islamophobia, media rhetoric and how we remember 9/11. Writer, sociologist and communications scholar Todd Gitlin, Granta 116 poet and law professor Lawrence Joseph and civil rights attorney and author of Patriot Acts: Narratives of Post-9/11 Injustice Alia Malek will join Granta magazine editor John Freeman to explore this topic.
