60 minutes episode tough to watch tonight


Sep 11, 2022, 8:13 PM

Listening to the 9-11 calls and the back stories of the fire fighters

didn't watch, but have recorded. Continues to be a hard

story with consequences still today. In a way, I hate to relive it every year, with all of the current year's struggles, but geez it was a major deal and apparently our gov't hasn't stepped up to help some survivors. This isn't people looking to be on a gov't teet for nothing, it's a finite group of people who deserve our help.

I read some of the Black Elk interviews years ago

done by John Neihardt. Black Elk was an Oglala Sioux holy man, witnessed Little Bighorn massacre as a child. Was made to scalp one of the soldiers while barely alive. Later in life, he witnessed the massacre at Wounded Knee…vividly remembered the machine gunned bodies of warriors, women, and children that were trying to run away. Specifically, he noted a child trying to nurse at the breast of his dead mother.

He reflected on those traumas and said, “certain things in the shadows of a person’s life do not need to be remembered. They remember themselves. “

I applied that to 9/11 in my own head, only way to deal with it for me.
