This should be a federal remembrance holiday!
Absolutely 🦅🇺🇸🦅
This hurts, even 25 years can’t erase all the emotions I felt on that day. The only beautiful part of it all was the unity. Let’s do better, let’s be better
I haven't forgotten. The News coverage of 9-11 of 25 years ago is etched in my brain. Prayers that this sad history is taught in schools for the children who weren't even born 25 years ago. Prayers for all of our fellow Americans who passed on with that tragedy. Prayers for those who became ill from being down at Ground Zero.
We forgot……everything
This is the comment of the century. I was literally just saying how we're so opposite of how we were 25 years ago. We are divided as a nation and its so sad.
