  • Summary

  • From across the Hudson River in New Jersey, residents witnessed the events of 9/11 as they were on the school run or morning commute.

    For Karina Vigo and her fellow students from Kearny High School in Kearny, NJ, they saw it unfold from their classroom window before teachers intervened and pulled down the blinds.

    Reliving the day, she reveals a loss of innocence from 9/11 as students didn't understand what was happening in the city just across the water where they would visit when cutting school.

    This is her story, told in her words.

Go for it

Very interesting stories that are decently nuanced, thoughtful. I thought the sound design was odd, the choice to add staged coughing or background subs weren’t integrated cleanly enough to be successful, didn’t melt enough into everything to enhance it. It felt a bit jarring. But i did appreciate the commitment to let people take full control over their experiences and not really doing other talking or narrating. And i do wish there were more episodes. Thank you!
