Sunday marks a somber day on the calendar as Americans across the country will remember the September 11th terrorist attacks that struck New York City, Washington D.C. and Pennsylvania 15 years ago.
Across South Florida, events will be taking place all weekend to remember the day that changed our country forever. The events started Friday at Miami Dade College’s North campus, where several artifacts from the World Trade Center donated to the school are located.
