Explore a StoryCorps-style project to record and preserve voices of PT members in perpetuity.
Consider a storytelling focus on how 9/11 has been taught over time, including reflections from educators and students.
Ensure anniversary messaging addresses the passage of time and evolving perspectives on 9/11.
Education & Public Programming
Launch a webinar series, starting with the Islamophobia Committee's "Important Conversations for Peace," in April, another in the summer, and end with one focused on peace and the long-term lessons of 9/11.

Reflect on PT's history of walks and public actions as a foundation for renewed engagement.
Consider incorporating memorials or moments of remembrance during public actions to honor loved ones, first responders, and others impacted after 9/11.
Understanding that large-scale public actions would require significant logistical planning and capacity assessment, we should discuss this further.

Through media engagement, recorded storytelling, and educational reflection, these initiatives can ensure that the legacy of the event remains relevant, Geometry Dash meaningful, and thoughtfully understood by both present and future generations.
