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. On September 11, 2001 I was in 1st period at the Sussex Middle School. My science teacher Mr. Thomas, came in and inturepted the class to let us know that a plane had hit one of the Twin Towers. We were brought into his office to watch it live,in a matter of secounds another plane had hit, in which I viewed it Live! We were surround by crying teachers and some students! Also we were immediantly evacuaded because it was pretty obvious that this was no mistake! Many students went home because they couldnt take the rest of the day at school! NMAH Story: Life Changed Has your life changed because of September 11, 2001? If so, tell us how. Well, Nothing really majorly changed, just that I guess I became a little more patriatic in a way. I began to appreciate people more and become a nicer person because you never know when it will be your last goodbye with someone. I began to treat people as if there is no tommorow! NMAH Story: Remembered What do you think should be remembered about September 11th? I think what should be remebered about September 11th is that so many innocent people died for such a stupid reason! That so many officers and fire fighters died to try to save as many people as they could, even putting there own life at risk! 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? I have and I also think that most of the people have! We saw them everywhere and then after a couple of months some people got ride of them, or cut down on them! I dont think that that is appropriate because so many workers of the WTC, Firefighters, and police officers put there lives at risk so that Americans can take the flags down after a while!
