    Much to my surprise the identification process is still ongoing, granted very slowly. The New York City Medical Examiner's office is in possession of about 22,000 human body parts in hopes that as technology evolved identifications could be made. On September 8, 2021 Dorothy Morgan and another man, whose family doesn't want to be made public, were identified. Of all that perished only 60% have been identified. It's incredible to think that families might still get the phone call they've been waiting 20 years for.

      People seem confused about this. It's very unlikely that's the only part of him that survived the destruction, but that's the tissue they found. It wouldn't have been found immediately, it would have been discovered after tonnes of material had been moved, weeks or even months later. All that movement disturbs the scene, and the remains. They weren't moving all this debris stone by stone, that would have been impossible. It's sad, and it's graphic to say, but many of those victims would have been further damaged by the movement of material.

    The woman's story at around 7:40 really speaks to me. I'm glad she was willing to share what remains were found and about her desire to have her husband's remains identified and accounted for. I completely respect and understand why others wouldn't want that. After all, many people believe that once a person's spirit leaves their body that the body itself isn't really *them*.
    But still, I wish Western society overall could be more accepting of those who want whatever parts of their loved ones that they can have and for it not to be seen as taboo or even macabre. Because to me personally, the idea of my loved ones having literally nothing left behind to recover is so upsetting to me that I'm honestly holding back tears right now.
    Anyway, I'm really glad this piece highlights those people and I'm also glad that the search is continuing over 19 years after these interviews took place. Technology is improving and I pray that more people can get some form of their loved ones back, even if it's a bone fragment.

      The first mass death I ever remember was during the Gulf war. It was on 2-13-1991 in Baghdad The Amiriyah shelter bombing at least 408 mostly woman and children died in the bombing. I remember it so well because of the husbands and fathers crying as they hauled the dead that they had wrapped in white cloth out of the rubble. So many little bodies. One man who was interviewed was crying out that he thought his family safe in the shelter that he never thought they would bomb an civilian shelter. It's been since then labeled a war crime. They say when the first plane dropped the bomb there screaming for 4 minutes until the next plane came with the second bomb and the screaming ceased. This was in a neighborhood at 4:04am in the morning and they where sleeping at the time. And that was the first time I had ever seen that type of grief and heartbreak.
      But over the years I watched civilians dieing in other countries. Apartment complex being bombed. So many tragedies every year. Then 2001 the world trade center was attacked. And I looked at my parents and asked them why do people care about this and not all the other tragedies that took more lives. Why are they so effected by this when not long ago that apparent building was bombed. What about the genocides and all that happened recently. I was told that people don't care about others who aren't like themselves and they didn't see those people as people especially the ones killed by our military. That they care about this because they can't not notice it because it's in there own country. But what happened in other countries don't matter to them nor do they feel for those people because they are so far away it's like they aren't real. They feel it doesn't effect them. But this effects the whole country so today they care.
      I have never been to NYC so to me it was as real as Baghdad, Czechoslovakia or even Rwanda.
      I remember 9-11-2001 I saw the grief and sadness. I saw the shock and how people where so eager to go to war. I saw it's effects. Then I saw the US military go in a city that we've already bombed in my own vary short lifetime to bomb it once again. I was 11 and wondered if anyone was surprised that the locals where scared and called us evil this was collective generational trauma and would these people ever forgive us for what we kept doing to them. Would the next generation also be moved to attack us in a unending cycle that never ended.

Maybe it was all too overwhelming. Seeing a huge fire and rescue truck bent up like a toy was something my mind could comprehend I guess. RIP to all those we lost.

    The memorial site with the 2 reflecting pools is quite stunning tho it represents the footprint of where both towers once stood but it would have taken alot of work to engrave all those victims names & to construct the area so beautifully. No, many won't be recovered because they were turned to dust but to find a heart that is astonishing. On a final note I think some jumped because they wanted to be identified otherwise they would have burned to death as the towers crumbled. It brought closure to some, this is my opinion. It will always be sad to alot of people & the memorial is all they have.

That the ability to extract DNA from samples so small is possibly years in the future? We are only now able to identify MIA service members’ remains from Korea and Vietnam. I don’t think most Americans comprehend the force brought to bear on the human body in the explosion and the collapse and how little is left to identify. This isn’t a failure to work hard and fast. It’s a job of inconceivably difficult proportions. Don’t assume a lack of effort or desire to finish the job. That’s an insult to those working so very hard to bring closure to those waiting.

      It's important to remember that they were gathering evidence while this was happening. There was debris all over lower Manhattan. Casey Neistat even explains in his video about what he experienced that day that as he left his apartment to go out onto the street someone was laying sheets over the bodies strewn around on the roads. This is likely also how they found the passport of one of the terrorists. It's entirely plausible that his body, or parts of him, were thrown out of the other side of the building, which is why his passport was still intact, because it was probably still in his pocket.

      That’s a nice but false memory. Almost immediately Muslims were targeted across the U.S. in many communities. Muslim business owners were harassed and threatened. Children were bullied at school. One school had to close after threats by parents when they learned their children were being asked to copy Quran verses in Arabic script to become more familiar with Islam and Arabic as part of a world cultures course.
      I remember going along with others to help patronize one man’s pizza shop in New Jersey because he was being harassed and threatened because of his faith. Sikhs, who have no relation to Islam, are frequently mistaken as Muslim by those who don’t know thé difference, and they too were targeted for vengeful threats and attacks. I believe there may have even been some deaths.
