On September 3, 2004 Tolerance In The News/ The Wire reported, "Valarie Kaur was a junior at Stanford University the day of the 9.11 attacks. Four days later Balbir Singh Sodhi, a Sikh immigrant from India, was murdered in front of his gas station in Mesa, Ariz., by a man who claimed he was taking revenge. Although the two didn't know one another, Kaur and Sodhi's stories were soon to intertwine. Three years later, after a long and educational process, Kaur is now deep in work on a documentary film inspired by Sodhi's death, 'Divided We Fall: Americans in the Aftermath.' "
