My thoughts and feeling about this event are have expanded due to the reading and different perspectives that I've learned today. I still don't quite understand as to why the hijackers would risk their own lives in some ideology that is so weak-minded.

# data[].attributes.body
I didn't know much about it before today. I never knew the visceral details. Today, it does resonate with me. There isn't a fiber in me that understands why someone would do this.

9/11 feels a bit dry to me because I wasn't even alive then. However, I still understand the great pain that people have from it.

# data[].attributes.body
It doesn't mean anything particular to me and my family but it is so terrible, i would never want anyone to go through that pain and suffering. I just feel very like uncomfortable and upset to speak about it cause its a really heavy topic.

# data[].attributes.body
September 11 resonates deeply, especially after seeing responses of the events. It had such a big impact on everyone's lives during those times, as well as now.

# data[].attributes.body
9/11 is not just a dry history lesson to me because of how i've been taught about it. My teachers have done some of that but my dads retelling of what happened are what makes it more meaningful of an event to me. I feel like all people, even if they weren't alive for these attacks have a connection with 9/11 through people around them, parents, and friends.

# data[].attributes.body
the emotions that has always stuck with me is sadness and like aches in my heart because my dads friend from college was in the north twin town building and i hate to see him so sad every year on that day.

# data[].attributes.body
September 11th is an extremely important thing to remember and it mostly resonates with me because my aunt was supposed to be in the world trade center on that day but didn't end up going. September 11th makes me realize how lucky I am to have been able to meet her and it makes me feel very sad for everyone that lost people close to them.

# data[].attributes.body
It reminds me of all the people who were hardworking people who didn't deserve to die. It reminds me how many families were ruined and caused so much destruction not just of the entire city but to so many people's lives as well and because of this it has changed so much about how we get on a plane and travel.

# data[].attributes.body
Even though I wasn't alive during 9/11 it defiantly means something to me. We used to live right outside DC, and my dad worked near the Pentagon, and my grandma lived close by as well. So even though I wasn't alive I'm still thankful that they weren't injured and were safe.

# data[].attributes.body
Even thought we weren't alive during this time it is still a very important topic and should be throughout our lives. It impacted everyone that was there and how sad / tragic it was seeing the plane crashes right in front of your face. It should continue to be a topic every year that kids learn about.

9/11 isnt just something that was a before it is something that impacted people there whole life. it impacted people even that werent born yet. its not just a dry history lesson its a date that wont ever be forgotten

# data[].attributes.body
It feels dry because I wasn't there to experience it. The people involved had a greater impact on their lives because they experienced it.

# data[].attributes.body
This lesson is not a dry lesson at all, 9/11 is an event that still is very recent in history. The events that took place that day have shaped America in ways we would have never expected. Everyone should be taught the importance of 9/11.

# data[].attributes.headline
Sept. 11 is deeper for me because i think that its important of how we bounce back from such a tragic event that was suppose to bring us down but it didn't. we stood firm at kept i pushing through.

It is not boring or dull. 9/11 was a major tragedy that affected everyone in america in some way, and it is both interesting and important to learn.

# data[].attributes.body
I always can never wrap my head around seeing a plane fly towards you or that the people who weren't directly hit had to basically come to the conclusion that the tower was going to fall and that they could either jump out of the window or they could wait but I could never imagine having to make that decision

# data[].attributes.body
Never will it be a dry history lesson, hopefully for anyone, because it is extremely important to be informed on topics like this because thousands of people died because of terrorism which is a massive problem today.

From your 9/11 timeline, survivor stories, and imagery reflection;

1) What does Sept. 11 mean to you? Is it mostly a “dry history lesson” or does it resonate for you in deeper ways? Explain.
2) Reflect and share the emotion/thought/feeling/question that has stuck with you throughout this time. Explain.

# data[].attributes.body
Its not something that is boring or dull, it is a major tragedy that we don't get the full impact of because it was not in our time, those people saw terrible things

# data[].attributes.body
I never really knew what 9/11 meant to me or my family, all I knew before was that it was a bad time to be in America at that time because of that stressful event. My family and I are Muslim, and they told me about the kinds of discrimination they went though after that day. As someone who people would associate with the attack, I feel horrible. I feel horrible to the survivors; that these people who call themselves my brothers and sisters would commit such a heinous act. I feel horrible to my fellow Muslims who had to and still face discrimination to this day because of the acts of these monsters. I hate the monsters who have tainted my religion, who had ruined the lives of so many and destroyed so many others. I might not be able to change the past, but going forward, I want to be able to take 9/11 more seriously and carefully. I want to also make it known that I and the Muslims in America aren't terrorists; only the hijackers and their associates were.

2) Growing up, starting at 5th grade, each year I've been reminded of what happened on September 11th. Which is what I think should be done, though over the years it's easy to become desensitized to the entire event. Though each year their is feeling of pain and grief the comes along with these lesson. Wondering how many family have been affected.

# data[].attributes.headline
Its not a dry history lesson to me. I know i was not around back then but i feel its very important to learn about this. So many people lost there lives today and also give there life to just help the people. Its good for us to learn all of this

1) I think 9/11 is an event that has impacted everyone, even if you weren't alive. Since it was one of the most recent things that happened that does play a role on how im impacts us but also because of the deaths that happened and the effects that effect us. For me it saddens me

# data[].attributes.body
1) It used to mean almost nothing to me as I am not even from this continent, but i realized that it should not be dismissed for such a futile reason

# data[].attributes.body
its not very dry to me but i still wasnt there for when it happened so i really dont have a say, i think that is important to keep learing and teaching about it becuase it is very important to learn about what happened to those people and to reflect about them.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel sympathetic. This effected the entire world and changed multiple things. I cant imagine hearing a plane flew into a building that you knew your loved one was in.

# data[].attributes.body
September 11 is a day to remember the people who passed during the attack and to thank all the first responders for giving their lives to save others.

September 11th was a tragic event. I first I didn't really understand the sheer scale and how tragic it was, but after watching peoples stories and watching the event unfold in the timeline, sort of made be realize how bad the situation was.

2) i feel very sad to say the least. i always understood how horrible 9/11 was for the US and its people but watching video of people who would rather fully jump out of an 80 story building than be stuck in the crossfires really just makes you think.

September 11, not only means more to me after hearing personal testimonies, but it also makes me very thankful to live in a country that can be called into action so quickly. I feel great sadness and mourn with the families who have lost a friend or family member. I also feel more of a responsibility as the next generation to always remember what happened that very tragic day.

# data[].attributes.body
It definitely isn't a dry history lesson, I think it is just a day to reflect and remember everyone that lost their lives.

I have always and will continue to always think about just how many wives, children, parents, and friends were affected all because two groups didn't see eye to eye. It makes me truly wonder what this world has come to.

# data[].attributes.body
The thoughts that have stuck with me is how terrifying it must be to be in the plane when it blows up, to be working in the buildings when they get hit. I couldn't imagine how traumatized the people are that lived through that. Another thing that has stuck with me is how upset & lost the families must be without their loved ones that lost their life that way. They were just going to work on a normal day. Now it's a day nobody will forget.

# data[].attributes.body
So many people lost there lives on 9/11 but for me it has become a history lesson solely because I was not alive and have no way to really connect to it. However when I hear phone calls of people inside the plane knowing that they will probably never see there loved ones again, that emotion stays with me throughout the rest of the day.

# data[].attributes.body
Typically, I'd go with the former and say that 9/11 was a tragic event that has been twisted into a shallow history lesson used to weaponize our prejudice, but after seeing the stories and their impact, it would be a lie to say it didn't feel at least a little different. It didn't completely nullify my views, but putting stories to the wall of names we associate with 9/11 was definitely jarring and more eye-opening.

# data[].attributes.body
While I don't have any personal experiences or stories related to the attack, the sheer magnitude of the attack and the terror that followed will always make it important to me. It's hard to imagine what people at the time were feeling or experiencing, but I myself always feel a bit of horror at the concept I can't even fully comprehend.

# data[].attributes.body
1) September 11th is either a dry history lesson or an interesting story depending on how it's taught, which year it's taught, who's teaching it if it's even being taught in the first place. My band director in eighth grade decided to tell us that he was working near Richmond when the crashes were occurring and students in his class had parents in the Pentagon.
2)How did they manage to pull this off with so few people compared to the number of people that were on the planes?

i think that 9/11 was a very devastating moment in Americas history that was not too long ago at the time my mom was in new york at the time and i have a lot of family up north so im just glad they are ok

-I don't think that anyone would think that learning about this would be a dry topic. It resonates with me because I don't know what I would do if the people I love were to be on one of those planes or be in the towers. I don't want to think about that situation, but the sheer thought of it frightens me and makes me feel for the people who have lost loved ones.

# data[].attributes.body
9/11 is something major and big that should be something that is talked about in school. People need to be aware of what happens, and why, so it might possible not happen again in the future.

Something that I feel from 9/11 is frustration because it could have been prevented and why would anyone do something like that to begin with.

# data[].attributes.body
I don't have a strong connection with it, since I was not around that day, but it isn't as distant to me as other events in history.

I feel sympathy for those who had to go through this.

# data[].attributes.body
I've been a citizen of the US for all my life. 9/11 still feels personal when looking through the evidence and the timeline. Knowing Bin Laden was brought to justice keeps my anger at bay. Thinking about 9/11 has always made me depressed and I think it was a horrible thing.

# data[].attributes.headline
It resonates in deeper ways because it's only been twenty years and every year when 9/11 appears again my teachers and my family all tell their stories of where they were when the attack happened.

All though I wasn't alive, 9/11 was a piece that no one will ever forget. It will never be a dry history lesson because we lost thousands of people. So many people suffered and I cant imagine how they feel.
question: were there people found in the debris days later

# data[].attributes.body
I believe 9/11 shows that anything can happen to anyone. Those people had no idea what was going on, and they couldn't have. It's a sad reminder of a terrible thing.
