According to MSNBC Host Melissa Harris-Perry

9/11 vaulted America into a “nationalist fervor” that was similar to “having post-traumatic stress disorder”
Makes racial joke about African-American men wearing NYPD hats
9/11 provided an opportunity for a new “racial enemy” in America
America “identifies who we are…through our notions of whiteness and of the racial enemies that are the non-whites”
9/11 gave America a chance to shift its racial hate from “Reagan‘s ’welfare Queen’“ to ”imagine” our enemy as ”somehow Muslim, or Arab, or Sikh, or something else.”
Americans an ability to “stomach a kind of horrific racial violence in the name of national security”
Those that are “activating terrorism against us” are “imagined racial enemies”
During a speaking engagement Monday, MSNBC host Melissa Harris-Perry made some startling accusation concerning 9/11 and Americas War on Terror. Perry, who anchors The Melissa Harris-Perry show on the weekends, remarked that 9/11 vaulted America into a “nationalist fervor” that was similar to “having post-traumatic stress disorder.”

The former neighbor to President Obama even used a racial joke to make her point, saying she knew the city was suffering from PTSD because “for about a year, there were African-American men walking around the city of New York with NYPD hats on. That can only be explained as a PTSD response.”

The Tulane Professor of Political Science continued, noting that 9/11 provided an opportunity for a new “racial enemy” in America, explaining:

“Americans in part identify who we are, and who deserves what, through our notions of whiteness and of the racial enemies that are the non-whites.” http://www.theblaze.com/stories/msnbc-host-911-gave-america-p...

    It's disgusting that this is the kind of material this Tulane instructor is teaching her students. No wonder we see so many eerily mutated, Marxist excuses for human beings expressing support for Barack 0bama here on SH when they learn this drivel in college.

    Ridiculous, of course. This goes far beyond the Nine-eleven Trutherism that became quite typical of the American left (and, sadly, of libertarians, too). When she hints that the New York Police Department does not ordinarily have non-white officers, no one can possibly take her seriously.
