September 11th

By Tammy Lo


I was in the second grade when 9/11 happened. I was living in Bay Ridge in Brooklyn at that time. My second grade teacher was crying. In my mind I asked myself “What is happening?” The adults that worked in P.S. 170 were calling phone numbers every second. As my grandmother was walking home with me, we saw dark clouds of smoke in the sky. I was scared.

I feel so bad for all of the people that had a loss. I would be crying all the time. It is six years since 9/11 and I still feel unprotected because I feel like the terrorists are going to strike again. God bless America.
