“I am stunned that our kids today are not taught about September 11,” Bernie Kerik, New York City Police Commissioner during the deadly terror attacks, said Friday on the “Just the News, Not Noise” television show. “People people sort of put it behind them.”
According to CBS , only 14 states are required to teach 9/11 in their curriculum, while states such as California are not required to.
“The bottom line is the most devastating battleground in the history of the United States, probably one of them, is Ground Zero, where 3,000 people died on the morning of September 11,” said Kerik. “Innocent people died on September 11. You know what? Nobody should forget what happened that day. And I’m stunned that schools around the country are not educating our youth to let them know what happened.”
To help educate children about what happened on 9/11, Tunnel to Towers founder Frank Siller started a curriculum based on the attacks for kids K-12.
Siller started the foundation in memory of his little brother, who was one of the firefighters who died going to save others on 9/11.
“Just two days ago, we made an announcement that we have now the Tunnel to Towers 9/11 Institute, where we built a curriculum for ages K-12, that we are going to get it out in all the schools across the country to make sure that they’re teaching the story of 9/11,” Siller said on “Just the News, Not Noise.”
“Not just about my brother, but about the 343 firefighters, the 60-plus police officers, and the 2,977 lives that were taken from us that day,” Swiller said. “Those stories have to be told, because we must never forget.”

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
