Title A name given to the resource Library of Congress Stories Description An account of the resource A collection of more than 200 user-submitted stories gathered from the Library of Congress's "Witness and Response" exhibition staged in 2002. LC Story LC Story: Story Where were you on September 11, 2001 when you heard the news? (Please share your experience of learning of the events and what you did afterwards.) I was on my way to work at a hotel in Eugene, Oregon. I did not think it was real at first. Maybe a replay of War of the Worlds or something on the radio. LC Story: Memory What is your strongest memory of that day? All day we had guests in the lobby watching the updates. Many were stuck with us for days because the airports were shut down. Many of them shared concerns of loved ones who worked in the twin towers or the surrounding area. I remember thinking how so many people(truly all the U.S.) were personally effected by one tragedy. LC Story: Affects How do you perceive that the events of September 11, 2001 have affected this country and/or you personally? At first it drew Americans closer and more able to understand the feelings of those in countries where violence and terrorism is a daily event. Now I fear we have fallen back into thinking only of ourselves and being comfortable in being a wealthy and safe country.
