Heroes of 9/11

It's very rare that the course of a nation – and the world – changes in a single day. But that's what happened on September 11, 2001. For two men, in very different walks of life, it was the kindness of strangers that helped them survive the trauma of the day and of the intervening years.

Coming Out
Join Ann Curry as people who first met during the early days of the LGBT movement reunite.
Before the 1970s, being gay in America meant facing widespread discrimination. To come out was to risk everything: family, job and even safety. For two young men growing up in New England, living a life out of the closet was only possible because of the people who helped them open the door.
Tom longs to find the friend who helped him accept his sexuality while Paul searches for the student activist whose courage changed his life.
