Analysis:
This article was written by Ray Sanchez and published by CNN on September 11 it talks about many different places and ways the events on 9/11 are remembered. 15 years ago I was only 2 months old so I have no recollection of this event but through my family and teachers I have been told stories and memories of what happened. We should always remember 9/11 and the people who lost their lives, we should remember it to make sure something this tragic never happens again. There have been many terrorist attacks since 2001 there have been even more in the past few years connected to ISIS. This is very concerning to me because history does repeat itself and I couldn't imagine something as catastrophic as 9/11 happening in America or anywhere else. As each year goes by there are more and more people who were not alive during 9/11 so it is crucial that we inform them and remind them why it is important to remember this day.
I agree that we should always pass down the stories of the attacks to our young so that we never forget such a tragedy as this. We can't let all those people die in vain.
