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 had just gotten to second hour in my freshman year. The teacher had the television switched onto the news like she usually has it. I sat at me seat and started watching it. They kept replaying the dreadful scene of the airplane hitting into the Twin Towers. The fact of what happened didn't actually sink in until I heard my friends talking about it during the next passing time. I went to third hour. I was completely stunned about what had happened. The rest of the day just seemed to pass by in a single glance. Right when i got home I called my Mom, she lives only 45 minutes away from the airplanes that were hi-jacked flew out. The next couple weeks, more like months, all you heard about was stuff like "What will the President do now?","Did Oama Bin-Laden really do it?", and "Is the U.S. as safe as most people belive?". It was really wierd hearing all these things. NMAH Story: Life Changed Has your life changed because of September 11, 2001? If so, tell us how. It has changed my life, but no a lot or atleast that is really noticeable. I fly out to see my Mom at least 2 times a year. Since September 11th it takes twice as long to get to the gate. NMAH Story: Remembered What do you think should be remembered about September 11th? I think that the people that died on that day should be remembered. Also all the people that set up the many charities for the September 11th victims. 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? To be honest I didn't fly an American flag. My feelings about the flag haven't really changed much, but my feelings about America has. I used to think that America was as safe and unvalnerable as can be; like we were in a plastic bubble. I relize now that bad things can happen here just as likely as any other country.
