20 years ago, we were 1

As a history nerd I feel the need to post this. A very fun interactives from the Times. I’ve never seen one like this before- so it’s extra super cool. You can click and drag the different sides of photographs from 1989 or from 2009. I was only a year old, and some of us were two years old. [Maybe others were older, or still just a twinkle in your parents' eyes.] But now we can be a part of those who look back, hear stories and read about it. Because looking back, reflecting and learning is fun! Especially when a huge historic moment is involved. I’ve seen a piece of the Berlin wall at the Reagan Library in California when I was in 5th grade. If I had that picture of my sisters and I awkwardly posing in front of it, I would share it. And I promise if I ever get it I will definitely share it. Until then: enjoy this, this and this.
