September 11 is, of course, the date that El Sandifer's annual piece on the 9/11/2011 installment of the newspaper comic Barney Google and Snuffy Smith comes out (and the one for the next year is posted on her Patreon). This year, we get a look at #Appalachia - its geology, its history and the stereotypes of Appalachians that exist.
"America a Prophecy" is indeed, a preposterous critical undertaking. It's also brilliant, each post a banger.

Highly recommend, y'all. HIGHEST OF HIGHLY.
