Welcome to this week's Campfire Episode of the Civic Flame. This week, we talk about the September 11, 2001, attacks. We look at where I was, how the world has changed, the 60 Words that Sent us into the Global War on Terror (GWot), and why Gen Z never lived in a world with civil liberties. Grab your stress blankets, because this one's tough.
