Today Alex did his historical context presentation on the 9/11 attacks.
We discussed what happened that day and what we were all doing at the time of the attacks, how it's a day we can all distinctly remember and recollect no matter what age we were. He had a lot of quotes from people who were there involved in the attacks, and writers who have written plays about the attacks but still say that after all these years it's still too soon.
I think the information is informative and interesting to hear peoples own views and experiences and how it has affected them. The performance that Alex asked us to watch which was performed by real victims of the attacks and people who helped out in that time of need was moving. It wasn't acted out it was just told for what it was without the need for a false force for sympathy.
