About Me:
 
Appalshop is a multi-disciplinary arts and education center in the heart of Appalachia producing original films, video, theater, music and spoken-word recordings, radio, photography, multimedia, and books.

Hobbies:
Appalshop's goals are to enlist the power of education, media, theater, music, and other arts: to tell stories the commercial cultural industries don't tell, challenging stereotypes with Appalachian voices and visions; to support communities' efforts to achieve justice and equity and solve their own problems in their own ways; to celebrate cultural diversity as a positive social value; and to participate in regional, national, and global dialogue toward these ends.
Movies:
Appalshop produces it's own movies.
Music:
Appalshop's community run radio station broadcasts live to parts of KY, VA, WV, NC and TN as well as on the web, playing everything from hip-hop to mountain traditional music. We also run JuneAppal Recordings, which is our record label.
Books:
Appalshop suggests the following: Night Comes to the Cumberland by Harry M. Caudill; Stories I Ain't Told Nobody Yet by Jo Carson; It Comes From the People by Helen Lewis, Maxine Waller, and Suzanna O'Donnell

I love what you're doing there! Transplant from the area (born in Norton, Virginia) and living near St. Louis, MO. My family is all Appalachian Mountain people, and my tradition is steeped in God, Bluegrass and the gentleness and perserverance of mountain folk!!! Keep on filming and sharing and blessings for the future!!! Happy to be a subscriber!

I live in Kentucky. You cannot drive very far in Eastern Ky. w/o seeing the rape of mountaintops. I live along the Ohio River , and although it is now as clean as it has been for 75 years, it still is a mess. Thanks for doing your part to help save our natural resources and our country's natural beauty. We can all learn from each other here at youtube.
