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. I got up for a normal day at school plus it was a wednesday which we normally started late than usual. The phone rang and I was nearlly on my way out the door. My mum quickly got me to come in for the news report which was on our channel one. It was like watching a movie simillar to Die Hard etc. I watched as the 2nd plane came into the other tower and knew then we are at war I couldny think of aything else but that. When I got to school everyone was talking about it I mean no one was left to wonder what had happened or not knowing of the events taken place, everyone knew. all day I was in suspense to watch what else had happened so far, we wern't allowed to watch tv becasue we had to get on with a normal days work. NMAH Story: Life Changed Has your life changed because of September 11, 2001? If so, tell us how. Yes very much so, It has made me feel more American eventhough a Kiwi all the way over in New Zealand. I mean when we heard I bet all over the world felt to be American, wanting everything to come over and help but the question was how? so all I could do was each day watch the news which was pretty much on for a whole of at least 5 days in a row. NMAH Story: Remembered What do you think should be remembered about September 11th? America should put it in the calendar for a national rememberance day or some sort just like veterans day, etc and put on the callandar for years to come so it reminds us to think and tell people what happend for the next generations to come. The main thing is about remembering all the people who were in the towers, the survivors, policemen/women, doctors, firemen/women, and everyone else who helped ease the pain, clear the area which is Ground Zero and many other places which were cleaned. 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 not untill the 2nd Annaversary I kept a flag in my pocket which everyone saw. No its making me even stronger feeling of wanting to move to America it has alwasy been my dream.
