Title A name given to the resource "September 11: Bearing Witness to History" Stories Submitted Online Description An account of the resource Visitors to the Smithsonian National Museum of American History's, "Bearing Witness to History" online exhibition submitted these reflections beginning in 2002. NMAH Story NMAH Story: Story How did you witness history on September 11th? Share your experience. We were in orchestra class (I was a high school junior) and were watching it happen. We actually saw the second plane hit the tower on TV, and both collapse. Then we heard a sonic boom of a plane overhead. We all got freaked out that the nearby air force base had been attacked, but it was just a friendly jet. That was the scariest part. I think I "witnessed history" in that this event will trigger lots of historical events. Especially if Bush foolishly attacks Iraq. NMAH Story: Life Changed Has your life changed because of September 11, 2001? If so, tell us how. Not really. Not at all, in fact. My view on the policies of our country got a little more negative, but my life didn't change. NMAH Story: Remembered What do you think should be remembered about September 11th? All the people that died in the four attacks. They were the reason the day was so awful. If the planes had been cargo planes and the towers were empty, it wouldn't have been as horrible as it was, so I think we should remember the people who died. NMAH Story: Flag Did you fly an American flag after the events of September 11th? Have your feelings about the American flag changed as a result of September 11th? No, I didn't fly a flag. I think it's sort of ridiculous that people put a piece of cloth outside to "support our country" instead of volunteering to help, even just around their neighborhood. The flag is so overused everywhere that it's lost much of its meaning. Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
