    Synopsis

    It's September 11th 2001. George W. Bush sits in an elementary school in Florida and reads a book with a group of second graders, most of them African American or Latino American. In the middle of the class the president learns about the attack on the World Trade Center. The pictures will later go around the world. What happened to these children? How did political decisions after 9/11 affect their lives?
