The boys from Appodlachia (Big John and Chuck) and I have come together in a hurry for a meeting of the minds and the accents. Listen to us discuss our experiences growing up Appalachian and why JD Vance's book (and the movie) is a massive problem- i.e. the fact that he throws an entire group of people under the bus. BUT, we also discuss some of the positives that can come from this- especially if we as Appalachians allow this to be a learning experience. If you're Appalachian, I hope this resounds with you. If you're not, I hope you listen to our experiences and opinions on the situation and come away a little more educated on an often misrepresented people. :)
