An Interview With Elizabeth Miller (September 11th Families For Peaceful Tomorrows)

Elizabeth L. Miller is the Project Director for September 11th Families for Peaceful Tomorrows, a nonprofit 9/11 family member organization that promotes peace. Miller earned an MA in Middle Eastern Studies (2020) at the CUNY Graduate Center in New York. Her research has focused on the complexities of women’s involvement in terrorism, and examination of human rights abuses in a post-9/11 world. Elizabeth lost her father, firefighter Douglas Miller on September 11th 2001. She appeared in dozens of broadcast interviews and panels, in the U.S. and abroad, around the twentieth anniversary of the 9/11 attacks. Elected in 2021, she currently serves on the city council of Port Jervis, NY. In our discussion, Miller talks about her father, how she became emotionally driven to understand what Al Qaeda is, and how she ultimately became the Project Director for the September 11th Families for Peaceful Tomorrows.
