Out Front Remembers September 11

Berlin Sylvestre is Out Front's Editor.

While the world pauses to remember the tragic events of September 11, 2001, let us also reflect on the fortitude of the American spirit.

As a nation, we pulled together and refused to let the acts of a few misguided souls divide us, as they set out to do. From volunteer firefighters from around the country to well-known celebrities donning hardhats, we had boots on the ground immediately as we picked up the pieces.

Where once the twin towers stood tall, One World Trade Center now serves as a reminder that it’s going to take a lot more than cowardice and hate to stand between our country’s proud citizens and their love of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

We bow our heads for the fallen, and salute the future as one of the greatest nations on earth.

WE WILL NEVER FORGET!
