Part 5/6:
The remembrances of September 11 this year hold a different tone as COVID-19 alters traditional modes of commemoration. The impact of the pandemic dictates that gatherings are smaller and protective gear, like masks and hand sanitizers, becomes as common as the symbolic tributes. This year serves not only as a reminder of past loss but also highlights the ongoing challenges society faces in terms of health, safety, and unity in times of uncertainty.
