Events were held across the nation on Tuesday to mark the 11th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks. President Obama spoke in a ceremony at the Pentagon.

President Obama: “We recommit ourselves to the values that we believe in, holding firmly, without wavering, to the hope that we confess. That’s the commitment that we reaffirm today. And that’s why, when the history books are written, the true legacy of 9/11 will not be one of fear or hate or division. It will be a safer world, a stronger nation, and a people more united than ever before.”
