This is a interview of my mother, that is based on her childhood and what she did during the historic event 9/11. I have heard almost all of my mother’s childhood stories, but the first time I interviewed my mother, was the first time I heard her story about 9/11.

The Youth Ambassadors Program offers teenagers from diverse backgrounds the opportunity to explore and document their own family backgrounds and their local neighborhood. They will research and collect oral histories about the own families’ stories and customs, as well as interview community residents and leaders about their experiences and efforts in Harlem. Participants will be involved in collective storytelling and develop their own short digital pieces to document artistic traditions and community history as experienced by youth to share their learning with museum visitors.
