"I want to know why they did it." Me too kid. What the heck happens in your life that you kill yourself just to scare and hurt as many people as possible?
I'm in Texas and I was shocked my own kids were not taught anything much about 9/11 in their US History classes. I had them watch a few documentaries and news coverage from that day and they asked me questions and that's how they learned what happened. They did not know planes flew into buildings for example. My kids were in middle school at the time.
Honestly we weren’t really taught it, then again I live in New Jersey, they didn’t need to teach us. I’m from a town outside Philly but I know many friends who’s parents were in or around New York that day, including one girl who’s mom was in the basement of the wtc during it and made it out
I was taught, I'm 24, from Arizona was 3 when it happened, learned a lot about it during school the "jumpers" are what stuck out to me the most and still do, but happy to see these kids learning about it
My dad and I were working construction that day, i was fresh out of HS, I remember all of a sudden everyones radioes went from music to reports of planes crashing on the twin towers, the boss sent everyone home right away when the news started talking about terrorism, we werent far from home so we got home when the towers were still standing, i remember watching it on TV in disbelief as they fell, we all watched quietly, no one knew what the hell was happening, every news channel was in a panic, i will never forget that day.
I don't ever remember being taught about 9/11 and I went to high school in the mid to late 2010s. Though the same could be said about a vast amount of historical occuranes.
i never formally learned about it in school seeing as I was in elementary school when it happened, and we all learned about it by being alive at the time it happened.
That was my experience just sort of being alive at the time was how I learned about it. But I do think things were different back then and it was easier for people to move forward with thier lives then it is today.
I was in 5th grade and my teacher put on the news one plane had hit the tower. Then boom two planes, everyone was taken out of school. I was about 40 mins from Manhattan. I just remember being so angry and confused.
My mom was in 2nd grade on 9/11 and my papa was in the army reserves. On 9/12/01 she answered the call that got him back to an army base and almost to Afghanistan
As a student in middle school during the 9/11 attacks I remember that day well. All schools should teach students, of all ages, about that fateful and horrific day
I was 13 years old living in Canada on 9/11 at school at the time so it more or less felt like a normal day of school until I got home. I was aware something happened but honestly I did not understand the magnitude of what happened until honestly after the fact.
I was 14 when in the morning we learned about the attacks in the United States, and everyone on my island had a sad day. On Saturday of that same week, the whole island gathered at the town hall of our capital to write in the guest book so that this book would be sent to the United States. It's a sad memory.
I'm just barely old enough to remember 9/11 (I was 9yo), but the only teaching of that day in my high school history class was a page or two in the history book. It wasn't actually diacussed in class. Then again, it was just 10 years after the attacks, so it may have been a bit too soon for some people, especially teachers, but 20 years later I think definitely should be in the curriculum.
What else did 9/11 cause?! Alot of lives lost. Alot of money lost. Two wars that we lost. We destabilized 2 countries, Iraq and Afghanistan. Honestly the evacuation from Afghanistan was just like the fall of Saigon. Complete and total mess. What's that old saying. we won the battle by finding most of the people responsible for 9/11 and killing them. but we lost the war, in this case, Wars.
So basic history is not mandatory for America? Bizarre to me as a non American. As we learn about it. It seems like not teaching about WWII to me. It's important to understand why the world is were it is now.
School have history class, in High school it's a requirement to graduate, also history of the US and the state they are in, also govt class learning about how govt works
Honestly I don't think it had much effect on me as I think I was still too young to fully grasp what happened but also I feel like it was a different time and I was just different back then
I remember it like it was yesterday. Close my eyes, and I can still tell you. What I was thinking. what I was smelling. I've never been so impacted! Till this day, I grieve with the nation!
I was 2 years old when 9/11 happened. According to my mom, I was sitting in the living room watching Blue's Clues while she was in the kitchen watching the replays on the news. How about you guys?
I attended one of Richard Gage's dog and pony shows in May of 2008 at Chicago Circle Campus. I got in line to question him after the show about the distribution of steel down the North Tower. He looked at me like I had grown a 2nd head. The cores of the towers were 85 by 135 feet containing 47 columns. The columns were braced by horizontal beams. Since most levels were 12 feet in height that would be 564 feet of vertical steel. I have never seen a layout of the horizontal steel so this is an estimate: 6 times 135 plus 8 times 85 or about 1490 ft of horizontal steel on each level in the core. So with about 2 1/2 times as much horizontal steel as vertical that would have been significant mass to move and act as a thermal heatsink to slow down temperature rise. So how thick was that horizontal steel and did it vary down the tower? How many tons of steel were in each level of the core? How much in the perimeter? Why have two decades gone by without "experts" discussing and demanding accurate data on the steel distribution? With lots of skyscrapers all over the world why should this be difficult to resolve?
The significance of the three machinery levels, the jointing details, how the floors tied them together, the structure that supported the radio antenna and so much more must be considered.
@@davidcroxton8306 It is curious how the NIST admits that the top of the South Tower tilted at 20 to 25 degrees but in two decades no one talks about the center of gravity.
I was 9 years old when this happened. It's good that these kids are being taught 9/11 because it's important. They need to be taught. Even know they will never experience what we experience as kids when it happened And I'll never forget how scary it was that day and how scared I was the days after 9/11. I find it really ridiculous that only 14 states off The 50 states allow 9/11 to be taught when it should be taught in every single state. Because it was a historical event that happened, and that it should never be forgotten.
"There is good people and bad people in the world, this has nothing to do with their races, religions, origins, the color of their skin or their ethnicities, good people makes good things, and bad people makes bad things. what other people has done does not determine who you are but your own actions and how you see yourself do" my parents told me this when i was a child, this was done with an inclusive perspective and acknowledging that there is evil in the world but there is kindness too and you are accountable for your own stuff
I cannot imagine NOT teaching this in school. Its HISTORY. and should be mandatory. I would have serious issue with a school that teaches history "selectively".
Because there's a lot of important things that need to be taught - adding a new thing means something else that's on the curriculum needs to be removed. Also, a lot of people aren't ready to actually face that it wasn't a black and white event that came from nowhere - it was a reaction to things the USA had done in other countries.
I’m history class it should be learned about at least a little bit…not kids though maybe grade 9 and up you should learn about it and why america went to war because of it
Why is the Eiffel Tower shaped the way it is? Each lower portion must support all weight above. So 10,000 tons of wrought iron got that shape though it did not have to support thousands of tons of concrete. So how was the 100,000 tons of steel distributed down the North Tower which was 37% taller than the Eiffel? How can a straight down collapse in less than 30 seconds be explained without that data? The NCSTAR1 report by the NIST does not even specify the total amount of concrete in the towers. It is certainly curious that we do not have physical or virtual models of the North Tower collapse after 21 years. It only took 4 months to build a physical model of the Tacoma Narrows bridge in a wind tunnel to study the oscillations in 1940. They didn't have electronic computers to slow them down.
@@FerretKibble Sure, the Conservation of Momentum is irrelevant to physics. Like when a mass hits a mass the relative quantity of the masses is irrelevant. How much steel was on level 5 compared to level 105?
Seriously, can you stop with the antimasking nonsense? You think they'd be grinning while learning about it if they were enabling harm to their classmates the way you want them too?!
you'd think the cause of america's longest war would be a standard part of the curriculum.
Lmfao how much did we learn about any war after ww2
Not Americas longest War......"The Indian Wars" were longer
@@harlow743 The War in Afghanistan was America's longest.
I still feel lots of anger when I watch anything 9/11.. I joined the military in 2002.
"I want to know why they did it."
Me too kid. What the heck happens in your life that you kill yourself just to scare and hurt as many people as possible?
Ur brainwashed. You still don't k ow why they did it, or should I say operation northward, Americans are so gullible 😂

Absolutely blew my mind when she said some of the students had never seen the footage
My kid didn't neither and I'm in Texas.

Should be nationally required and a federal holiday

"Only 14 states require 9/11 discussion"... speechless.
I am utterly flabbergasted that it is not a requirement in all states…how could this be?
I don't ever remember being taught about 9/11 and I went to high school in the mid to late 2010s. Though the same could be said about a vast amount of historical occuranes.
i'm from england & born two years after 9/11. i remember being taught about it in primary school some time in the late 00s on the anniversary
Good for him! I recently saw interviews on a college campus where they knew so little about it.
Learning about 9/11 while experiencing the Covid pandemic…
I was a freshman in high school when 9/11 happen.

I was 7 when 9/11 happened and I remember not fully understanding what was happening at the time.
I was 10 years old when it happened, and I legitimately grew up over night.
Same, I was 13 it was a coming of age moment for me.
Ya'll were so young but old enough to remember how life was in America before the attacks. I was 29 when it happened.
Honestly I don't think it had much effect on me as I think I was still too young to fully grasp what happened but also I feel like it was a different time and I was just different back then
In my school, it’s not required. We learned about it around 4th or 5th grade.

He was a senior meaning he's still in his 30's, and looks like he's in his 50's!

I can’t believe it’s been 20 years. I wonder what 9/11 would be like in 25 years
I was 1 years old when it happened
