Modern American History- Monday- 2nd period
Today the students were instructed to meet at the causeway, where once everyone showed up, they got to hop a portal to New York. It was really crowded on this street between the tourists and people who just wanted to get to work, so Kitty found a quieter area so she could talk to them.
PS: Sorry about the weather. Kitty brought umbrellas in case of rain.
"We've gotten ourselves to the 2000's now," she said. "And I don't think I really need to go into too much detail, since so many of the aftereffects of the decade are things we're still dealing with today. There's the rise of social media, the crash of the global economy, the election of the first black president, and you're never going to be able to talk about the 2000's without mentioning 9/11. We're not going to go into detail about it, though. But that is why I brought you here to the 9/11 memorial. And if you look up right over there, that's Freedom Tower, which was built in place of the buildings that were destroyed. Today I just want you guys to check out the memorial, or don't, if you don't feel okay doing it. Up to you."

... Honestly, there was just a lot of horrible events in her world, and she was sad to know that even one of those things happened in normal Earths, too.
