19 Years Since 9/11: What Lessons Has US Learned, What Has Changed?
Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden and US President Donald Trump were both set to visit Shanksville on Friday. "Biden’s campaign announced Thursday evening that he would be in New York Friday morning for a ceremony at the 9/11 Memorial & Museum, before traveling to Shanksville in the afternoon," the Washington Post reported Thursday. Has the US learned from the past?
"The number of people seeking and collecting unemployment benefits has remained at historically high levels in recent weeks, a sign the labor-market recovery is losing steam six months after the pandemic struck the US," the Wall Street Journal reported Thursday. How will this play out?
Friday is panel day. For our first panel, we are joined by Laith Marouf and James Carey. A Thursday Washington Post headline read: "Talks between Taliban, Afghan government to begin this weekend after 6 high-value prisoners were released from Afghan custody." What does this mean going forward?
For our next panel, we are joined by Margaret Kimberley and Ajamu Baraka, who will also discuss the upcoming talks in Afghanistan.
For our final panel, we are joined by Dr. Clarence Lusane and Jim Kavanagh. They will begin by talking about a US federal court ruling on Thursday that blocks the Trump administration from excluding undocumented immigrants from the US Census.
