Remembering 9/11

Jesse Hamilton

September 11, 2015

Fourteen years ago today, we pulled together to confront a horrific attack. Co-worker helping co-worker, neighbor helping neighbor. Communities comforting families in agony. We remember the heroism and the humanity on display that day. We reject the bitterness, the cruelty, the hatred of humanity that fueled those attacks. We commit to continuing to be an extraordinary city, a beacon to the world. A city that demonstrates every day that people from all continents, all cultures, all ethnicities, and all religious traditions can prosper together, can live together, can strive together, can hope together. In peace.
