Accolla, The National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States, 2023-12-14 It is perhaps obvious to state that terrorists cannot plan and carry out attacks in the United States if they are unable to enter the country. Yet prior to September 11, while there were efforts to enhance border security, no agency of the U.S. government thought of border security as a tool in the counterterrorism arsenal. Indeed, even after 19 hijackers demonstrated the relative ease of obtaining a U.S. visa and gaining admission into the United States, border security still is not considered a cornerstone of national security policy.

| american airlines flight attendant in person interview: Words from the Window Seat Taylor Tippett, 2021-10-12 Flight attendant Taylor Tippett had just finished beverage service and was sitting in the back of a Boeing 737 when she had a revelation: How can I show kindness to these passengers if I can't show it to myself? She grabbed a tiny notepad and a Sharpie and wrote a simple message that would change her life: Be kind to yourself. Before she had time to think about it, Taylor taped the note to a window, posted a picture, and then left the slip of paper in a seat-back pocket for someone on the next flight to find. What started as a personal project to encourage herself and others soon became a viral sensation. In Words from the Window Seat, Taylor shares stories of her travels, daily life, and interactions with people of all kinds, anchoring each chapter around a note she's left for a stranger to find. As she takes you from Chicago to Paris to Barcelona on planes, trains, and even a skateboard, you'll: Learn how to embody love through little acts of kindness Discover the small moments of magic in the everyday Find ways to embrace your authentic self With charm, inspiration, and plenty of whimsy, Taylor reminds us that even in a weary world, it's possible to celebrate the beauty in each person's unique story--and make an impact that goes deeper than you'll ever know.

| american airlines flight attendant in person interview: Dragged Off David Anh Dao, 2021-03-16 A Vietnamese Refugee, a Viral Video, and the United Airlines Scandal That Started It All “His refusal to give up his seat on a United Airlines flight, and the ensuing assault he suffered, is emblematic of how far we, the people, still have to travel to create a world with liberty and justice for all.” —Marlena Fiol, PhD, globally recognized scholar and speaker and author of Nothing Bad Between Us Dr. David Dao was dragged off United Express Flight 3411 on April 9, 2017 after refusing to give up his seat. In the tradition of contemporary immigrant stories comes a personal narrative of the many small but significant acts of racial discrimination faced on the way to the American Dream. The unseen effects of discrimination. The United Airlines scandal of 2017 garnered over a million views on YouTube. A result of an overbooking overlook, security officials forcibly removed Dr. Dao after refusing to give up his seat. He awoke in the hospital to a concussion, a broken nose, several broken teeth, and worldwide attention. Things aren’t always fair for an immigrant, but according to Dr. Dao, you can prevail if you firmly advocate for yourself. A response to a lifetime of oppressive acts. Why was Dr. Dao so adamant on his right to a seat? His entire life had led to that moment. A Vietnamese refugee, he fled his home country during the fall of Saigon. He was stranded in the Indian Ocean, immigrated to the United States, enrolled in medical school for a second time, built a practice, and started a family-all the while battling the effects of discrimination and what he had to embrace as a result. This is his story. If you are moved by immigrant stories, or books like America for Americans, Minor Feelings, How to Be an Antiracist, or The Making of Asian America, then you’ll want to read Dr. David Dao's story, Dragged Off. |

| american airlines flight attendant in person interview: Holly Hunt Holly Hunt, 2024-10-08 A visionary known for revolutionizing American design, Hunt changed the way Americans furnish and decorate their homes. In her first book, Hunt shares her nearly 40 years of design collections and her philosophy behind her modern, elegant designs.

| american airlines flight attendant in person interview: American Muslim Perspectives on Radicalization Nahid Afrose Kabir, 2023-12-17 This book is a study of American Muslims' perspectives on Muslims who become radicalized and choose to support the Islamic State. Muslim radicalization is a global phenomenon that has affected American Muslims as it has Muslims throughout the world. In 2015, approximately 250 Americans joined the Islamic State (IS), and some still sympathize with it. Based on 51 in-depth interviews conducted in nine states from 2017 to 2021, this book offers a thematic understanding of radicalization, touching on themes such as Islamic history, Muslims' social and political identities, cultural dilemmas, radicalization outlets, mental health, media stereotypes, Islamophobia, security, and the impact of COVID-19 on radicalization. This book differs from previous scholarship on the causes of radicalization by focusing on the perspectives of non-radicalized American Muslims. While some previous scholarship has focused on Muslim radicalization in Europe, this book provides a new spectrum of views from the United States. It also offers pathways to de-radicalization. The interview data is complemented with relevant literature, analysis of media perspectives, and the author's personal observations. |

| american airlines flight attendant in person interview: Incoming Bianca de la Garza, 2024-10-22 “Bianca de la Garza is a seasoned pro in speaking truth to power as a respected and authentic journalist. She always ‘comes to the game’ prepared and professional. Her new book takes on the bias and dishonesty of what poses as ‘news’ by dissecting how and why today’s mainstream media has become ‘fake news’ by trying to change the story rather than just reporting the story. I always enjoy repartee with Bianca because I know she’ll be fair, but tough. You’ll love her book. You’ll love her.” —Governor Mike Huckabee, Fmr. Presidential Candidate, Arkansas Governor, and Host of Huckabee Cable news TV anchor Bianca De La Garza reports the news every day, twice a day. She’s a journalist and a commentator, a conservative, a Christian, and a mom. The news is ugly, frightening, violent, insane, and relentless. Those in power are corrupt. The corporate media is corrupt. Corporate America is corrupt. Every day there is reason to despair. Yet every day there is also reason to hope. As Bianca reports daily and writes in this book, the foundation of America is stronger than the evil that attacks her every day. Conservative Americans must face this evil head on, and not back down. Conservative Americans hold tight to their families, faith, and values, and know that they have the power to rise from the insane policies and propaganda that have created crime, inflation, indoctrination of American children, and open borders. The right is right, and every day more people are waking up to that truth, and realizing that the radical Left is wrong and must be stopped. Everything we hold dear depends on it. “Bianca is the person the mainstream media fears the most: a competent journalist who reports facts and doesn’t play the role of an activist on air. Her book is an insider account of how the America dream is still alive and well, she’s living proof of that, and I encourage everyone to grab their copy!” —Brilyn Hollyhand, RNC Youth Advisory Council Chair and Author “Bianca de la Garza is one of America’s leading anchors and most successful journalists worldwide. As a truth teller and an avid researcher for the deep end of stories, she is known in US media as an accurate, balanced, and investigative media specialist, not only on set but also as an uber influencer and an opinion maker. Bianca has shown in her powerful career that she is the product of the American dream. I have observed her work for years and consider her the best leader in high level conversations. I strongly recommend her new book to acquire another advanced insight on the mechanisms and values inside the world of American media. Get the book!” —Dr. Walid Phares, Foreign Policy Expert and Author “Bianca de la Garza has long been a dynamic force in broadcasting, and her new book is no exception. Drawing on her extensive experience as a show host and journalist, she brings a unique perspective that is both thought-provoking and deeply relevant. Bianca’s insight into the world of news and current events is as sharp as it is engaging, making this book a must-read for anyone looking to better understand the times we live in. Her ability to connect with audiences shines through every page, delivering a compelling narrative that is both informative and inspiring.” —Matthew Whitaker, Former Acting United States Attorney General; Senior Fellow, American Cornerstone Institute |

| american airlines flight attendant in person interview: First 109 Minutes: 9/11 And The U.S. Air Force. Priscilla D. Jones, 2014-08-15 Tuesday, Sep. 11, 2001, dawned cool and clear, with sunny skies all along the eastern seaboard. For Air Force aviators like Lt. Col. Timothy Duff Duffy of the 102d Fighter Wing at Otis Air National Guard Base, Massachusetts, the day held the promise of perfect flying weather, at a time when the U.S. civil aviation system was enjoying a period of relative peace, despite concerns about a growing terrorist threat. More than ten years had passed since the last hijacking or bombing of a U.S. air carrier. That morning, however, the country came under a shocking, coordinated aerial assault by nineteen al Qaeda hijackers...The attack plan carried out by the suicide operatives had been years in the making. It was intended to cause mass, indiscriminate casualties and to destroy or damage the nation’s financial, military, and political centers, four high value U.S. targets selected by bin Laden, independent operator Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, and al Qaeda operations chief Mohammed Atef... By the time 1 World Trade Center, North Tower, collapsed at 10:28 a.m. EDT, almost three thousand people had been killed or were dying; the financial center of the U.S. had been reduced to burning, toxic rubble; the iconic symbol of the military strength of the country had been severely damaged; the tranquility of a field in Pennsylvania had been shattered; U.S. Air Force and Air National Guard fighter aircraft had set up combat air patrols over Washington, D.C., and New York City; and the administration of President George W. Bush and the Department of Defense (DOD) had begun shifting major resources of the federal government and military services to a new national priority, homeland defense. |
| american airlines flight attendant in person interview: Queering STEM Culture in US Higher Education Kelly J. Cross, Stephanie Farrell, Bryce Hughes, 2022-06-28 Adopting an intersectional lens, this timely volume explores the lived experiences of members of the queer and trans community in post-secondary STEM culture in the US to provide critical insights into progressing socially just STEM education pathways. Offering contributions from students, faculty, practitioners, and administrators, the volume highlights prevailing issues of heteronormativity and marginalization across a range of STEM disciplines. Autoethnographic accounts place minority experiences within the broader context of social and cultural phenomena to reveal subtle and overt forms of exclusion, and systematic barriers to participation in STEM professions, academia, and research. Finally, the book offers key recommendations to inform future research and practice. This volume will benefit researchers, academics, and educators with an interest in higher education, engineering education, and the sociology of education more broadly. Those involved with diversity, equity, and inclusion within education, queer theory, and gender and sexuality studies will also benefit from this volume. |

| american airlines flight attendant in person interview: Plane Queer Phil Tiemeyer, 2013-03-12 In this vibrant new history, Phil Tiemeyer details the history of men working as flight attendants. Beginning with the founding of the profession in the late 1920s and continuing into the post-September 11 era, Plane Queer examines the history of men who joined workplaces customarily identified as female-oriented. It examines the various hardships these men faced at work, paying particular attention to the conflation of gender-based, sexuality-based, and AIDS-based discrimination. Tiemeyer also examines how this heavily gay-identified group of workers created an important place for gay men to come out, garner acceptance from their fellow workers, fight homophobia and AIDS phobia, and advocate for LGBT civil rights. All the while, male flight attendants facilitated key breakthroughs in gender-based civil rights law, including an important expansion of the ways that Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act would protect workers from sex discrimination. Throughout their history, men working as flight attendants helped evolve an industry often identified with American adventuring, technological innovation, and economic power into a queer space. |
| american airlines flight attendant in person interview: From Memory to Memorial J. William Thompson, 2017-02-15 On September 11, 2001, Shanksville, Pennsylvania, became a center of national attention when United Airlines Flight 93 crashed into a former strip mine in sleepy Somerset County, killing all forty passengers and crew aboard. This is the story of the memorialization that followed, from immediate, unofficial personal memorials to the ten-year effort to plan and build a permanent national monument to honor those who died. It is also the story of the unlikely community that developed through those efforts. As the country struggled to process the events of September 11, temporary memorials—from wreaths of flowers to personalized T-shirts and flags—appeared along the chain-link fences that lined the perimeter of the crash site. They served as evidence of the residents’ need to pay tribute to the tragedy and of the demand for an official monument. Weaving oral accounts from Shanksville residents and family members of those who died with contemporaneous news reports and records, J. William Thompson traces the creation of the monument and explores the larger narrative of memorialization in America. He recounts the crash and its sobering immediate impact on area residents and the nation, discusses the history of and controversies surrounding efforts to permanently commemorate the event, and relates how locals and grief-stricken family members ultimately bonded with movers and shakers at the federal level to build the Flight 93 National Memorial. A heartfelt examination of memory, place, and the effects of tragedy on small-town America, this fact-driven account of how the Flight 93 National Memorial came to be is a captivating look at the many ways we strive as communities to forever remember the events that change us. |

| american airlines flight attendant in person interview: Nuts! Kevin Freiberg, Jackie Freiberg, 1998-02-17 Twenty-five years ago, Herb Kelleher reinvented air travel when he founded Southwest Airlines, where the planes are painted like killer whales, a typical company maxim is Hire people with a sense of humor, and in-flight meals are never served--just sixty million bags of peanuts a year. By sidestepping reengineering, total quality management, and other management philosophies and employing its own brand of business success, Kelleher's airline has turned a profit for twenty-four consecutive years and seen its stock soar 300 percent since 1990. Today, Southwest is the safest airline in the world and ranks number one in the industry for service, on-time performance, and lowest employee turnover rate; and Fortune magazine has twice ranked Southwest one of the ten best companies to work for in America. How do they do it? With unlimited access to the people and inside documents of Southwest Airlines, authors Kevin and Jackie Freiberg share the secrets behind the greatest success story in commercial aviation. Read it and discover how to transfer the Southwest inspiration to your own business and personal life. |

| american airlines flight attendant in person interview: The Last Fighter Pilot Don Brown, 2017-07-31 *A NATIONAL BESTSELLER!* The New York Post calls The Last Fighter Pilot a must-read book. From April to August of 1945, Captain Jerry Yellin and a small group of fellow fighter pilots flew dangerous bombing and strafe missions out of Iwo Jima over Japan. Even days after America dropped the atomic bombs on Hiroshima on August 6 and Nagasaki on August 9, the pilots continued to fly. Though Japan had suffered unimaginable devastation, the emperor still refused to surrender. Bestselling author Don Brown (Treason) sits down with Yelllin, now ninety-three years old, to tell the incredible true story of the final combat mission of World War II. Nine days after Hiroshima, on the morning of August 14th, Yellin and his wingman 1st Lieutenant Phillip Schlamberg took off from Iwo Jima to bomb Tokyo. By the time Yellin returned to Iwo Jima, the war was officially over—but his young friend Schlamberg would never get to hear the news. The Last Fighter Pilot is a harrowing first-person account of war from one of America's last living World War II veterans. |
