Initiatives
The Center for the Study of the American South at UNC-Chapel Hill is home to transformative initiatives that illuminate the complexities of the region and foster collaboration across communities.
Our Southern Oral History Program amplifies voices through an extensive collection of interviews documenting Southern life and history. Southern Cultures, our peer-reviewed journal, showcases scholarship and creative works that explore the South’s past, present, and future. As a network Southern Futures brings together students, scholars, artists, and community leaders to imagine what might be possible. Together, these initiatives advance our mission to engage, understand, and reimagine the American South.
