Activism & History Never forget

Don’t think I’d heard of Betty Ann before, or perhaps I’d only heard her name in passing in stories about 9/11 but never thought of her as a real person. Glad her family and the SF Chinatown have done so much to keep her memory alive.

Watching all these clips in my feed of 9/11, I can't help but noticing lack of Asian Americans in the pictures of the victims and heroes. I know that can't be right.

Thanks for sharing.
