http://t.co/DGyIVpB via @addthis - They say "Time heals all wounds" - For all first responders, as well as for journalists who worked on 9/11 and the days following those horrific attacks on WTC- Today felt in some ways, just like it was yesterday. Therefore, I think an edit could be made to update it and say "time heals most wounds".

National Council of Asian Pacific Americans on September 11

Submitted by ub on

Members of the National Council of Asian Pacific Americans (NCAPA) stand together on the ten-year anniversary of 9/11 to remember the tremendous loss of life that occurred on that day and to recommit ourselves to fundamental American values of civil rights, inclusion, and diversity.

We mourn and honor all of the victims of 9/11, including Americans of many races, ethnicity, and religions, who perished in New York City, Pennsylvania, and Washington DC, and the first responders who sacrificed their lives.
