IADC Southeast Virtual Regional Meeting
Join us! This BYOB event will be held via Zoom. We look forward to connecting with you.
Featured Speaker:
Scott Barretta
University of Mississippi Center for the Study of Southern Culture
Oxford, Mississippi USA
Topic:
Cultural History in Mississippi
Join noted speaker, author, and professor Scott Barretta as he entertains and educates us about “The Birthplace of the Blues,” the Mississippi Delta and its music, civil rights history, and colorful characters. Scott will discuss blues music and both the “Blues Trail” and “Civil Rights Trail,” which are roadside markers provided for historical references and to allow self-guided day trips. At last count, he had co-written nearly 210 markers for the Blues Trail alone! Along with his legendary storytelling, our virtual platform will allow Scott to share slides to bring people, places, and events to life. Scott is an instructor at the Center for the Study of Southern Culture at the University of Mississippi; former editor of Living Blues magazine; host of a radio show, “Highway 61 Radio;” and recipient of Mississippi’s Governor’s Award for Excellence in the Arts.
