Shepherd Speaks StoryCorps Project
“We take words seriously in Appalachia,” writes novelist and activist Silas House. “We have a deep reverence for language and for storytelling.” People have a compelling need to both listen to stories and to tell their own story because the power of the story shapes our understanding of where we come from, who we are, and the potential for what we might become. Those who seize the language are able to seize their own destiny because . . . “Words Matter!”
