This week has been a time of reflection on the loss, perseverance, and humanity displayed on September 11, 2001. It’s also been a time for remembrance of 9/11. We asked our listeners to send us suggestions for songs that helped them cope with and process the events of that day. Here are some of their suggestions. Terrance McKnight, WQXR host, narrates this segment.
