  6. To Live Here, You Have to Fight How Women Led Appalachian Movements for Social Justice, 2017

    Launched in 1964, the War on Poverty quickly took aim at the coalfields of southern Appalachia. There, the federal government found unexpected allies among working-class white women devoted to a local tradition of citizen caregiving and seasoned by decades of activism and community service.

  7. Regulators OK Appalachian Power’s $340 million plan for old Glen Lyn coal plant

    i’m pretty furious about this. this plant was closed after decades of community pressure due to the harm it was doing to the local environment and how unsafe it was to keep operating. the waste management plan is to simply fuck over a neighborhood down river

  8. #introduction. I'm Sunflower (not my real name), & I'm new to #Mastodon. (She/her/y'all). 30-something w/ fond memories of the #90s & early #2000s. I live w/ a hidden #disability & chronic #migraine. I like writing #altText on my photos, & maybe I have a bit too much fun w/ it. I love #crafting #hiking #photography #books & #fungi. I'm passionate about #Appalachia #Travel & #coffee. I love #rain, rainy days are my favorite. I try to practice #gratitude & see myself as a #nerd. Thx for ⭐️ & 🔄!

  10. Devil's walking stick — Aralia spinosa — the thorny tree crowding every Southern fencerow, armed head to foot with spines that dare you close.
    The young spring shoots, cooked all the way through, have fed these hills for generations. Kin to ginseng and sarsaparilla.

    I wish I could go back to my younger self and convince her that the tiny beach shack or small rustic old cabin she always dreamt of was enough.
