"Kansas Remembers" Project

"Kansas Remembers" Documents Life in Kansas Following September 11

No doubt about it, September 11, 2001 introduced a time of great historical importance. To help document the lives of ordinary Kansans during these extraordinary times, the Kansas State Historical Society conducted the "Kansas Remembers" Project. Citizens of the state were encouraged to document activities in their community and share their thoughts, feelings, and reactions about the events of September 11, 2001 and subsequent events. The materials received became a part of our permanent collections and preserved for future generations.
