“On September 12, 2001, the American Folklife Center
at the Library of Congress called upon folklorists and other ethnographers
across the nation to document on audio-tape the thoughts and feelings expressed
by average citizens following the tragic events of September 11. In addition, the Center collected photographic
documentation of the memorial tributes created near the Pentagon and at the
site of the World Trade Center, as well as in other parts of the country. These recordings and other documentary
materials are now part of the Center's Archive of Folk Culture.” This site features some of the materials and
images collected.
