We Remember

Between 2000 and 2023, our nation has experienced 567 active attack events. A total of 3,913 casualties result from these attacks, and out of that number, 1,382 people died. This page attempts to list every name of every victim. Please alert us if any mistakes or omissions are found. We attempt to capture every name we can find to remember the victims.

Let us pause for a moment of silence to remember and honor those lost. ALERRT also strives to honor with courage and compassion the thousands of surviving families and those who risked their lives to save others.

Don’t Name Them

At ALERRT, it is our policy to refrain from naming the person(s) responsible for active attacks. Research has shown that many attacks are the result of fame-seeking behavior by the attackers. By refusing to name them, we aim to remove fame and notoriety as possible motivators of future attacks. ALERRT hosts a website, DontNameThem.org, that provides more information and resources about the “Don’t Name Them” movement.
