Society & Culture
In this episode, I wanted to share with listeners why I decided to start this podcast. I wanted to explain my family's deep roots in the Delta and why the area is so important to me. Like many of you, I have traveled and lived in various places throughout the country. But, there is something about the Mississippi Delta. When I cross the Mississippi River Bridge from Lake Village, Arkansas to Greenville, I feel an inexplicable sense of relief. It’s as if a weight lifts from my shoulders and I can breathe deeply again when I see that sign that says, ‘Welcome to Mississippi.’
