Part 1/9:
Chapter XXVIII: 911 Another Dimension
In August 2017, I visited the World Trade Center (WTC) site and was struck by the stringent visitor rules and regulations in place. The restrictions prohibiting expressive activities, demonstrations, commercial filming, and a plethora of other behaviors create a somber atmosphere, reflective of the site’s tragic history. Visitors are subjected to tense security checks akin to those at airports, evoking a sense of unease as they prepare to engage with a place marked by immense loss.
