Talking Folklife, Hotdogs And The Asian-Appalachian Experience
Inside Appalachia - En podkast av West Virginia Public Broadcasting

Kategorier:
This week, we talk with folklorist Emily Hilliard about her new book exploring contemporary folklife and Appalachian culture — like the lore behind the West Virginia slaw dog. We’ll also hear about the Asian-Appalachian experience from a student filmmaker who was born in China and grew up in western Maryland, and we’ll travel back to 2016 and listen to an interview with JD Vance. Back then he was a newly published author, promoting his book, “Hillbilly Elegy.” Now, he’s Ohio’s newly elected U.S. senator. You’ll hear these stories and more this week, Inside Appalachia.
