The events of 9/11 were absolutely terrible but why......?
......do people only seem to care when rich (mainly) white people die. The reaction and news coverage of that terrible day was incredible.
The thing is on that same day 3000 people in Africa died of hunger and disease and 3000 have died every day since.
Do you see blanket news coverage of this on TV and people far away crying over it ? No .
Are these lives not as important as rich western lives ?
The events of 9/11 were absolutely terrible but why......?opera houseBecause it happened in America to Americans.
Most of the new coverage I saw that day was by American stations.
America is like people, we're concerned with oursleves first, from there it spirals out- me, my family, my country, my world.
What happened, is happening, in Africa is sad, but, I hate to say it, there is not here.

Very very well said. I could'nt have said it better|||More then 1,00,000 people died in Kasmir terror in last 2 decades none of country noticed.|||Not to sound callous towards the dead and dying in Africa, but it seems that this has been going on forever in Africa with no appreciable end in sight. Between corrupt political regimes and internal tribal fighting, it almost appears that life there is unimportant. It's not, but that's how it gets portrayed by the media.
