Episode Details

Twenty-five years after 9/11, Mayor Zohran Mamdani and survivors’ families won a major victory—over 170,000 previously sealed documents are now public, revealing what city officials knew about toxic air and health risks in the aftermath. Internal memos, including the infamous Harding memo from 2001, show awareness of legal liability and dangers of returning too soon to lower Manhattan. A 2002 FEMA letter even confirmed asbestos in debris with long-term health implications. This release is a historic step toward accountability for survivors seeking truth and justice after two decades of unanswered questions.
