A first-of-its-kind anthology and digital archive honoring the Black Southern experience — from the Gullah Geechee coastlines to the rolling hills of Appalachia.
The anthology features Black poets, writers, and cultural workers reclaiming legacy, memory, land, and language — all rooted in Southern soil.
The digital archive preserves the oral histories, art, and testimonies that deserve to be remembered forever.
This is our story, told by us, for us.
And it debuts at the Griot & Grey Owl Writers Conference this November 2025.
Be part of this historic project. Donate to Kickstarter, share with your network, and help us uplift the voices of the Black South.
Bring the whole family out for fun, games, and Black joy at our Field Day Fundraiser on June 28 at @seedsdurham!
All donations are tax-deductible through @bumpthetriangle.
Bring your friends, your fam, and your giving spirit. Let’s kick off this legacy right.
