Episode 3 - The Economy and the South
In this episode we're going to give an overview of the economy of the South. To be clear, this episode is not intended to get into the granular details of the South's economic history -- there is no way to do this in 30-40 minutes -- but the episodes does offer the tools you will need to 1) analyze how the economic basis of a society governs its culture and 2) information you will need to understand this concept in relation to the South.
Keep in mind I skim through a lot of information here because my goal is to give a wide overview. For more details, I would strongly suggest doing supplemental reading that will help you to understand date ranges, famous people associated with the economy (e.g. - Eliza Lucas or Henry Grady), and the details associated with specific locations (such as rice in South Carolina).
