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 was in school when I found out. I just entered my second hour class, when everyone was saying, "Have you heard? A plane ran into the twin towers, and into the pentagon! And while we were watching, another plane ran into the other tower!" The teacher turned on the classroom tv, and we all watched the second tower fall first, and then later, the first tower fall second. It was totally devastating. Nobody knew what was causing it. Everyone thought it was Iraq bombing us or starting a war. No one thought about Usama Bin Laden. NMAH Story: Life Changed Has your life changed because of September 11, 2001? If so, tell us how. I personally didn't know anyone that died. My life hasn't drasticly changed or anything due to 9/11, but it has had a slight effect on my awairness to terrorists. NMAH Story: Remembered What do you think should be remembered about September 11th? I think the firefighters should definatly be remembred, and everyone is doing such a good job at that already. I think the victims need to be remembered, and it should definately be remembered how everyone around the country, and around the world came to help in some way. And we need to realize that help is there when we need it. 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 personally, but yes, my feelings have gotten stronger, I can't say that they have changed, because I think I have always been proud to be an American, it's just that all this makes you realize it.
