    For our inaugural episode, we discuss some background information to our project for the next 6 months. In this show, we’ll be digging into the essays in the book I’ll Take My Stand: The South and the Agrarian Tradition. This book was published in 1930 and contains 12 essays by Southerners critiquing the growing industrialization of America at that time. In this episode, we introduce the project, discuss biographical information on the 12 authors, and go over the “Introduction: Statement of Principles” section paragraph by paragraph.
