Episode #011: Dr. Zandria Robinson, author and ethnographer

Zandria Robinson takes being a sociologist to a whole new level. She continues her conversation on the South by appearing on CMP and broadening horizons. Subjects include black southern heritage, the Ferguson riots, the southernization of America, commodetization of ideas, culture creators, and so much more. A podcast so heavy it's worthy of enjoying with some honey butter biscuits and crunchy potato tacos.
