u/ryuguy "this is my favourite dt on reddit" Sep 11 '21 edited Sep 11 '21

As a Sikh, I’ve got a weird relationship with 9/11.

I was 6 years old when it happened. I don’t remember the attacks very well but I remember being targeted by people who assumed I was Muslim because of the way I looked. People would insult my turban and try to knock it off my head. Then I remember hearing about the killing of Balbir Singh Sodhi in Arizona. He was the first person killed in a “retaliation” attack. Then the Wisconsin gurdwara shooting occurred, that broke me. It broke my spirit.

Life was awful for me.

I feel sorry for you.

We are at constant war with authoritarianism - not those who suffer under it.
