This week we're marking 25 years since 9/11 - but not with another play-by-play of that morning. We're asking a stranger question: when does something you lived through stop being a memory and become a history lesson? We compare how 9/11 is starting to age the way Pearl Harbor, the JFK assassination, and the Challenger explosion already have — what gets remembered, what gets smoothed over, and what myths take root once the people who were actually there start to disappear from the room. Plus: a massive project happening this week where 30+ photojournalists who shot 9/11 are telling their side of the story for the first time.
