Black history stories in Jackson County
Despite the stereotypes, Appalachia isn’t inhabited solely by white folk, nor has it ever been.

We’ve been in contact with one of the authors preserving those stories today. Victoria Casey McDonald’s books on African-Americans in Jackson County are out of print, but we have a chance to change that.
