Today is September 11th, 2021.

20 years ago, our country changed forever.

The fabric of what it meant to be an American was ripped down the middle.

We will never ever be the country that we wore before September 11th.

Those of you who were privileged enough lucky enough to be raised in the 80s, the 90s, the guy was.

You recall in very fuzzy terms a very different America, a simpler America, a more naive America,

a Pax Americana that seemed indestructible.

20 years after that morning on September 11th, everything has changed.

Those of you who are younger in the audience may not remember a world pre 9-11.

In fact, of the 13 service members who were killed tragically in Kabul, Afghanistan.

So many of them weren't even alive when September 11th kicked off that 20-year war in Afghanistan,

of which they may be some of the last American casualties.

What have we become since that fateful morning?

Who are we now as people?

Is our country better? Are we wiser?

Are we taking into effect the lessons that got us to that morning of carnage in chaos in lower Manhattan?

Or have we learned nothing?

Today on the Benny Show we're going to look at the ghosts of September 11th and we're going to examine what country we've become.

The America of September 10th, 2020, 2001.

The America of September 10th is an America we'll never get back.

The world you grew up in doesn't exist anymore.

And the morning of September 11th changed that forever.
