SC App Launch & Picnic

To celebrate the Summer 2015 issue release from Southern Cultures, we’re having a beach picnic — right here in Chapel Hill! The new issue features the Ali-Quarry fight in Atlanta, contested stereotypes of southern motherhood, Civil War novels by Vietnam vets, lesbian print culture in North Carolina, and the UNC Student Strike of 1970 — plus Bulgarian Faulkner, gorilla stories, thwarted lynchings, and a circus cemetery in “Little Dixie.” We’ll also unveil the new Southern Cultures app from UNC Press, which allows readers to access our award-winning content on the go.

Join us at the Love House for a summer picnic, comments by John Sherer, a poetry reading by Darnell Arnault, and fantastic beach music by The Legacy Motown Revue! This event is free and open to the public.
