Amplifying Mississippi’s Stories

Out of all the projects funded across the state, the Mississippi Humanities Council selected just two top grantees to launch the second season of their flagship podcast—and I was one of them.

In this season premiere of Reflecting Mississippi, I discuss the legacy of America250 and how preserving the historical records of the Delta Burial Corporation offers a vital lens into the history, resilience, and legacy of the region’s Black community.

Listen to the conversation to hear how we are bringing these essential stories to light.
