RESOURCES TO COMMEMORATE
|
| 92nd Street Y | Parents are concerned about how to talk with their children about 9/11—what information to include, the message they want to impart, acknowledging the day as a family, and why this conversation is important. 92Y offers two videos that provide helpful information and a framework to help parents begin the conversation with younger children and teens. Visit 92Y.org/9-11 for these informative videos, and information on all events, lectures and programs for adults and children designed to commemorate September 11th. |

| Measuring Time: Music for 9/11/11 | WQXR and WNYC in New York City want to enhance the spirit of this anniversary for all of our listeners. So we are creating a special playlist of music suggested by listeners to mark the occasion. Your suggestions will be played on a special online stream that will launch in early September on WQXR.org and WNYC.org. And the songs and compositions will be used to program both stations on September 11, 2011. It's all part of a weekend of special programming from WQXR devoted to the anniversary. We'll post a complete listing of all our 9/11 Tenth Anniversary specials in mid August. If you leave a suggestion, please consider leaving a story to go with it, so we can tell it as part of this project. Even better, you can tell it yourself by calling our dedicated suggestion line. To participate, please call 1-800-543-2543 or fill out the survey below. http://www.wqxr.org/articles/wqxr-features/2011/jul/19/measuring-time-music-911/ |
