I am 25 8 sadly thing that those who are now teens and younger will forget. Those self entitled kids are saying that it is no longer relevant today and it is time to move on, like many things today. I was only in Kindergarten that day in California. But even I, at that tender age understood something horrible had happened. I am probably among the youngest to remember the events of that time. I remember the cry to go and kick the Taliban's rear. By 1st grade the troops were deployed and we wrote them letters at Christmas. By that I understood exactly what had happened and was filled even then of patriot anger. Thatbis something these kids will never understand.

I remember coming back to Manhattan where I lived before and after the attacks of 9/11. I just happened to be home for a couple of weeks down South during the actual attack but drove back soon after. My girlfriend worked downtown around 9th Ave and 33rd. Anyway, one of the first things we did together was walk through a catwalk to see Ground Zero first hand and I remember that tannish dust just everywhere coating everything. It looked like tannish snowfall...even in the cemetery at Trinity Church. One store owner had dedicated a corner of the store behind plexiglass with things exactly as they were on 9/11. Now...when I look at a map of Ground Zero and how extensive the perimeter was of identified remains....it's just a very sobering thought to realize that we were walking among the victims themselves scattered everywhere. God bless the families who lost a loved one or friend and for those hundreds of first responders who gave all. Never forget...

[@melissamoss9253]

I just watched a documentary (I think on Amazon Prime) called "Calls from the Towers." It was about people who got to speak to their loved ones or at least got voicemail messages from them, and the saddest part to me was that almost all of them felt they were going to survive. Since they couldn't see from the outside view, like we could, they didn't know they were above the impact point from the planes so they would never make it to a stairwell, and many of them were being instructed by building security to stay in place and fire and rescue would get to them. There was no way anyone could've reached them, but they didn't know that. I had to really think about whether or not it would be better to know, and say your goodbyes, or to remain hopeful and oblivious till the end. After all, I think the ones who were keenly aware they weren't going to make it were many of those who decided to jump from the Towers that day, and what an agonizing choice that had to be! Not only choosing being jumping or burning to death, but then, the fall is widely reported to have taken 10 full seconds, so they had time to think on the way down. The entire day is just such a horrific tragedy.

What’s so crazy to me, that I did not realize until recently, was that I mentally blocked out what happened that day. I was in 8th grade and they brought all the 8th graders to the cafeteria to watch on TV what had just happened. I was shocked and could not believe what I was seeing. Then, I remember one of my friends breaking down and crying while watching what was happening and then it clicked that this was real. I went home and didn’t watch a second of what was happening on TV and I blocked out what I had watched at school earlier. I never read in detail what exactly happened on 9/11 or watched any documentaries on it. It wasn’t until this year that I actually learned more about what happened that day and it brought those old memories to surface and my heart broke again, like that day in the 8th grade in my school cafeteria.

Sure I’d seen lots of it overseas in different places, but seeing that happen in a place that was so familiar was very jarring. Not knowing what was going on… Nobody knew… How many more planes were there? Where were they? Had the global power balance been upended in an irreversible way?

After 911, my sister showed me a chunk of glass. That her neighbor gave her from ground zero. He was a fireman there. I took photos of it. Then she decided to donate it to someone, that lost someone there. 😞

No video on resting place of victims' remains in Staten Island landfill. Deplorable.

Maybe it’s not those who died but the macabre display that they dislike. Do not shame them.

The part where there was a piece of clothing in a plastic container: The note within it stating to the effect of "do not wash. The dust/ash is someones remains. " Broght so much sorrow to hear, even after 23 years time. RIP to all whom passed.

[@criticalhard]

Why pictures tho? Why not displaying the real objects?

[@db-xf7ec]

maybe because they’re sacred and what if the building somehow catches on fire and they don’t want to lose everything but pictures can be reprinted or because of thieves

[@cassycookie9558]

Because they dont want people to actually examine those objects

[@Kristendelores]

My bet is the fragility of the items. You have to imagine that any movement/touch could damage them further. Additionally, They could be owned by private citizens/companies and those people would like them to be kept in the best condition possible while being a part of the exibit.

[@Mariatyra]

Maybe they had to return those items back to their families? Having the actual items would make it feel more real for sure

[@reddlady5997]

@@Kristendelores not true. Check out the bombing of the Oklahoma City Federal building. Not only is the museum where it happened, but tons of things from the bombing are in the museum. I went there seeing shoes and personal items and parts of the building....was insane and so sad. It made you appreciate those who helped, and mourn for those who died.

[@rachelcookie321]

This reminds me of the objects displayed at Hiroshima museum from the atomic bomb. It’s so much scarier when the object is sitting right in front of you.
