Smithsonian marks 25th anniversary of 9/11 with display of rare artifacts
The Smithsonian's National Museum of American History is honoring the 25th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks with a special exhibit. The display features rarely seen items from that day, including personal objects from United Airlines Flight 93 and the World Trade Center. The exhibit runs through Saturday. Museum director Anthea Hartig says the goal is to help visitors remember and reconnect with history.
The museum has faced scrutiny from President Donald Trump and Republicans over its portrayal of American history. Hartig insists the exhibit's creation wasn't influenced by political pressure. Leadership changes at the Smithsonian may bring more shifts in the future.
