In honor of 9/11.
This is not an assigned project.
Fourteen years ago, terror struck the United States. Four planes were hijacked by militants associated with al-Qaeda. Two planes were flown into the World Trade Center towers in NYC, another plane into the Pentagon outside Washington D.C., and a fourth crashed in a field in PA. Over 3,000 people were killed. This photo of my brother's German Shepherd is in memory and in honor of all the people who serve and protect the United States of America. To all military personnel, police officers, firefighters, EMTs, etc, thank you for your service. This includes my dad, who served in the Vietnam War as an artilleryman, and my boyfriend, Wes, who served 3 tours in the Iraq War as a 7/10th Cavalry Army Scout, our friend's dad, Mr. Cordova, Lt. for the Cincinnati Police and to all their brothers and sisters in Arms. You are heroes.

Taft Museum - Edward Curtis photographs
First of all, the Taft house is beautiful.
About the exhibit, this show was amazing. The Native American culture is my favorite to study. I've read a lot but to see these real pictures from the early 1900s was enlightening. My favorite picture was of Red Cloud. Edward Curtis, the photographer, said that Red Cloud would not answer any of the questions he asked. Chief Red Cloud was quoted at an old age saying,
"They made us many promises, more than I can remember. But they kept but one--They promised to take our land...and they took it."
Curtis' photo of Red Cloud is just as sad as that quote.
