ART: Really, we can't sum up September 11 any better than SFist commenter extraordinaire fizzandpop, who today said, "On September the 10th most of the country thought that New York was full of fags, jews and spics and should just sail off into the Atlantic. By September 11th it was every hillbilly's personal tragedy." Well put, fizzandpop.
And on that note, check out "We Remember the Sun: 9/11/1973," a performance piece/exhibit by L. M. Bogad and Praba Pila about "the CIA-assisted military overthrow and killing of Chile’s democratically elected president, Salvador Allende," which lead to General Augusto Pinochet's violent, blood-soaked dictatorship.
(If you must get your 9/11 teardrops on today, here are some photos from the AT&T Park tribute thingy.)
