Episode Synopsis

Chad Berry is a husband, a dad and a grandfather. He is the Vice President for Alumni, Communications and Philanthropy at Berea College and holds the Goode Professorship in Appalachian Studies as a Professor of History. We discuss place, placelessness and displacement in America, and the ways the places from which we come give us identity and can also sometime feel burdensome. We focus particular attention on the Appalachian region and how that place carries so much beauty, complexity and significance, and we worry about the loss of unique places in America.
