Twin Towers, Twin Decades
​

We’re coming up on two decades since 911. It was an event that defined an entire generation. The ripple effects spread in more directions than could be accurately tracked; the surveillance state, international wars, changes in economic trajectories. But perhaps most importantly, it seems like we became a nation that no longer trusted each other.

And yet, in the days following the attack on the WTC, I remember, in NY in particular a sense of solidarity, support and one of neighborhood community: we were in this together, and we would prevail together.

In the two decades that have followed the attack, we’ve seen togetherness, separation, and everything in between.
