TC Students React to the January 6th Terrorist Attacks at the Capitol<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

While in seventh period, your phone starts blowing up\u2014texts, Twitter notifications, Instagram stories, and reposts all flood in about what is going on in Washington D.C.

I hope that this is the end of an era, rather than a beginning.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
