Welcome to Episode 2 of Blac Re-Membering: Highlighting the Heavy and the Hope. In this episode, you will hear from 4 of our BLAC Fellows: Melanie Meade, Kimyata Patterson, NitaJade, and Marie Cochran. You will hear from each Fellow about their connection to Black Appalachia and what they hope to gain from their work as a Fellow. 

The mission of the Black Appalachian Coalition (BLAC) is to build a multi-state campaign that amplifies black voices, dismantles the colonized narrative of Appalachia, and uses story-based strategies and solutions that center the voices and lived experiences of Black Appalachians.
