Seems like a woke “no” to me.
My class watched 9/11 news footage in the classroom. My sister's did too, just a couple years ago. It depends on the school and the teacher how they wanna teach it. But in general, I don't think showing kids videos of actual human death is ever necessary to teach them that humans died. Call me woke but I didn't learn shit from the video that I didn't already know from just words.

Fueling and canalizing hatred against muslims is a good thing. It's exactly the same thing Quran does with muslims to dehumanize and to hate everyone else who isn't muslim.
Sure, the question is what do you learn from it?
In terms of education learning about the events leading up to it is far more interesting.
No more than watching Abu Ghraib, Vietnam, and other US atrocities, should be.

Depends on the age of the kids, and also the ostensible educational value, if any. It might be best for a college structural engineering class or for a group of firefighters or other first responders.
History classes around here do it in junior high apparently.
Of course they would, was sitting in 6th grade Science class when it happened, instead of normal class, we watched news coverage of what was happening.
No, they would probably allow watching if President Trump got shot. The teachers would all be happy.
I have seen world war footage in class, I think they'll be fine.
