These are ways to mark 9/11 across the Houston area

FILE - In this Sept. 11, 2020, file photo tribute in Light, two vertical columns of light representing the fallen towers of the World Trade Center shine against the lower Manhattan skyline on the 19th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks, seen from Jersey City, N.J. As the 20th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks approaches, Americans increasingly balk at intrusive government surveillance in the name of national security, and only about a third believe that the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq were worth fighting, according to a new poll by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research.

This Saturday will mark 20 years since the September 11 terrorist attacks on the United States.

On the anniversary of the nation’s most tragic day, Americans will gather to observe the harrowing day that will never be forgotten.
