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 woke up and heard the phone ringing, the muffled sound of my moms voice and the click of the TV being turned on. I went into the living room and my mom was watching TV in her PJs. The reality didn't hit me until Social Studies that day at school. During current events that's all we talked about. The rest of the day was kind of shock. I was mad at the terrorists and sad for the people who were in the buildings and their families. NMAH Story: Life Changed Has your life changed because of September 11, 2001? If so, tell us how. Yes. My uncle is in the military so he went to Luisiana to fill in for the people in Afganistan. I look at our flag differently now. I think our flag gave many people comfort. It shows that we are more united than ever. I saw a commertial on TLC. It shows a line of houses and says 'On September 11 terrorists planned to change America forever.' Then the same houses flash up covered in flags,'They succeded.' NMAH Story: Remembered What do you think should be remembered about September 11th? I think people should remember that no matter how much evil there is that so long as you have friends, family, your life, love, and hope you'll be ok. 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? Of course I flew a flag! The flag I think, before September 11 wasn't something that people thought of much but now it's a strong symbol of respect, unity, and hope.
