It’s already lasted longer than Smoky Mountain Downyonder Boogerpick Wrestling so it’s pretty safe to say it’ll outlast the bigot that’s one Wendy’s burger away from a stroke
Our Team Coordinator Extraordinaire hails from Alabama so Y’all know what I mean when I say there’s going to be some serious southern conversations in our work together! #DownYonder
So, @SilasLapham, one last one. One of our favorite Southerners Dr. Bennett said, "An educator in a system of oppression is either a revolutionary or an oppressor." Based on your piece, what revolutionary actions do we need to take? What’s that look like for folks? #DownYonder
@SilasLapham In your piece you discuss the reality that the South’s history is filled with atrocities. Can you unpack how that reality impacts your work with Southerners who are reckoning with the history of the region while also working toward a Better South? #DownYonder
@SilasLapham We’ve asked every contributor this really hard question… What is the work your piece necessitates? In other words, what’s the work this piece is asking us to do? You mentioned self-examination. Can you expand? #DownYonder
@SilasLapham We asked our other #DownYonder contributors @Emily_Brier_ and @DOCJTTAYLOR about their hopes for their contributions. What are your hopes for the reader?
Now… to get to chatting… @SilasLapham… Could you tell us why you wrote this piece? (Y’all remember to use hashtag #DownYonder as you jump in the conversation.) You know this gets wild on The Twitter.
Some overview: We are going to tweet questions and @SilasLapham will grace us with his answers. Y’all please ask questions too! Use the hashtag #DownYonder when you do.
