Community Responses

Among all of the thoughtful commemorations I’ve been hearing about in response to the tenth anniversary of September 11th (and I’ve certainly been struck by the many ways that individuals have privately grieved and integrated this tragedy into their lives), I wanted to highlight an ongoing community response. Evidently, groups of people gather together in many cities every September 11th to walk and talk together.

A quote from the organization that facilitates this “interaction, friendship and love are still the only antidote to misunderstanding, fear and hatred.”
