America Changed After 9/11
|
|
Should the war on terrorism change they way America sees itself and its place in the world? The wounds of the 9-11 attack are deep and profound, and with it, some say, the opportunity for change.
American society did change after the attack at Pearl Harbor, the other day that will live in infamy. World War II was a transforming experience for America. Thousands died in battle; the role of women forever changed; a mass middle class was created by the G.I. Bill.
Will the War on Terror have a similar effect on the nation? And should it? Would a foreign policy shaped by the war on terrorism serve America well? Have you seen America transformed since the events on 9-11? Is staying true to America's long-held principles and way of life the only way to keep the terrorists from winning? |

A World Anthem | Listen
Music producer John Guillot had a dream to create a world anthem but instead of penning it himself he let a computer do it. He inputted the 193 recognized national anthems into musical intelligence program that noted their similarities and tendencies lyrically, musically and rhythmically. After 5-years of work the result became a high-tech world anthem amalgam. Since the events of September 11th., the world anthem project went from a musical science experiment to an song of healing and coming together.
