Warning: Twin Towers, 911 (Disaster Series)

This piece was created so that this act is not repeated and to honor the men and women who lost their lives during the attack. On Tuesday, Sept. 11, 2001, I was on 116th Street and Lexington Avenue in Harlem when I noticed folks around me looking downtown. When I turned my head to look I saw smoke in the sky, seconds later, someone in a trunk yelled, “a jet airliner had crashed into the World Trade Center towers.” In complete disbelief, I went home turned on the tv to hear that knife-wielding hijackers had crashed two airliners into the World Trade Center, toppling its twin 110-story towers.

Where were you?
