  • Appalachia, Democracy, and Cultural Equity by Dudley Cocke
    This article was originally published in 1993 in the book, "Voices from the Battlefront: Achieving Cultural Equity," edited by Marta Moreno Vega and Cheryll Y. Green; a Caribbean Cultural Center Book; Africa World Press, Inc. The article is based on presentations given by Dudley Cocke in 1989, 1990, and 1991 at a series of Cultural Diversity Based on Cultural Grounding conferences and follow-up meetings. Appalachia, Democracy, and Cultural Equity by Dudley Cocke A joke from the Depression goes: Two Black men are standing in a government breadline; one turns to the other, “How you making it?” The other looks up the line, “White folks still in the lead.” Although central Appalachia’s population is 98 percent white, the region joins the South Bronx, Bedford-Stuyvesant, and the Mississippi Delta at the bottom of the barrel in United States per capita income and college-educated adults. Two out of five students who make it to high school drop out before graduating, which is the worst dropout rate in the nation. Forty-two percent of the region’s adults are functionally illiterate. In eastern Kentucky’s Letcher County, half the children are classified as economically deprived, and almost a third of the area’s households exist on less than $10,000 a year. What’s the story here? Why are these white people doing so poorly? Part of the answer lies in the beginnings of the nation. 1 In the ascendancy of antidemocratic ideas such as those expressed by Alexander Hamilton and the Federalists were buried some of the seeds of Appalachia’s poverty.

  • ADVENTURES in the BIBLE BELT (The Charleston Gazette
    ADVENTURES IN THE BIBLE BELT (The Charleston Gazette - 12/7/93) (reprinted in Fascinating West Virginia) By James A. Haught For many years, I was the Gazette's religion reporter and, believe me, I met some amazing denizens of Appalachia's Bible Belt. Does anyone remember Clarence "Tiz" Jones, the evangelist-burglar? Jones had been a West Virginia champion amateur boxer in his youth, but succumbed to booze and evil companions, and spent a hitch in state prison. Then he was converted and became a popular Nazarene revivalist. He roved the state, drawing big crowds, with many coming forward to be saved. But police noticed a pattern: In towns where Jones preached, burglaries happened. Eventually, officers charged him with a break-in. This caused a backlash among churches. Followers said Satan and his agents were framing the preacher. The Rev. John Hancock, a former Daily Mail reporter turned Nazarene pastor, led a "Justice for Tiz Jones" committee. Protest marches were held. Then Jones was nabbed red-handed in another burglary, and his guilt was clear. He went back to prison. Another spectacular West Virginia minister was "Dr." Paul Collett, a faith- healer who claimed he could resurrect the dead - if they hadn't been embalmed. Collett set up a big tent in Charleston and drew multitudes, including many in wheelchairs and on crutches. The healer said he had revived a corpse during a previous stop at Kenova. He urged believers to bring him bodies of loved ones, before embalming. Collett moved his show into the old Ferguson Theater and broadcast over Charleston radio stations.

  • “Rising Appalachia” and Traditional Folk/Pop As Social Protest
    3.6. Underground music in America’s heartland: “Rising Appalachia” and traditional folk/pop as social protest Michael Saffle1 Jordan Laney 1 Abstract Rising Appalachia, a quasi-folk, quasi-pop activist group fronted by sisters Leah and Chloe Smith of Atlanta, Georgia, strives to stimulate awareness of regional economic and political problems, and to enact changes involving the clear-cutting of forests, mountain top removal, and other ecologically and socially destructive activities. The Smiths and their collaborators stand apart from the increasingly globalized and commodified cultural spaces that surround them. Their do-it- yourself performative roots and style, together with the local musical practices and convictions they embrace, contribute to what might be considered avant-garde and underground character closely associated with one of America’s least prosperous and most neglected cultural heartlands. Several audiovisual recordings, all of them available on YouTube, exemplify the ensemble’s commitment both to traditional and local musical styles as well as to opposition in the face of political and social repression and exploitation. Keywords: Appalachia, traditional music, avant-garde, activism, underground music Rising Appalachia is a quasi-folk, quasi-pop activist group fronted by sisters Leah and Chloe Smith of Atlanta, Georgia. Since their first public performances in 2008 the group, built by the Smiths, has grown rapidly in popularity through social media and an extensive touring schedule; already they have performed in Costa Rica, the Czech Republic, Italy, and several other nations. Unlike most of the performers pro/claiming Appalachia as an identity or allied space, however, Rising Appalachia must be considered radical.

    Let’s strike a new deal that works for US Most Appalachians—whether white, Black or brown; whether they live in cities, small towns or the backwoods—care deeply about their communities.

    12799-01_CH01_3rdPgs.qxd 1/25/12 10:49 AM Page 1 james p. ziliak 1 Introduction: Progress and Prospects for Appalachia Appalachia is a region apart—both geographically and statistically. President’s Appalachian Regional Commission, 1964 Much of the Southern Appalachians is as underdeveloped, when compared with the affluence of the rest of the nation, as the newly independent coun- tries of Africa. Julius Duscha, 19601 n april 1964 president Lyndon Johnson traveled to Martin County, IKentucky, in the heart of Appalachia to launch the nation’s War on Poverty. Within a year—with passage of the Appalachian Regional Development Act of 1965 (ARDA)—Appalachia was designated as a special economic zone. The act created a federal and state partnership known as the Appalachian Regional Commission (ARC), whose mission is to expand the economic opportunities of the area’s residents by increasing job opportunities, human capital, and trans- portation. The ARC-designated region is depicted by its 1967 boundaries and associated subregions in figure 1-1. The ARC region covers the Appalachian Mountains from southern New York to northern Mississippi and spans parts of twelve states and all of West Virginia. As of 2010, 420 counties were included in 1.
