My whole life I’ve been into geography and yet — after 50+ trips around the Sun — it was like two weeks ago that I learned that Appalachia is pronounced Appa-LATCH-ia … not Appa-LAY-chia 🤦🏾♂️
Also, Y’ALL (Young Appalachian Leaders and Learners) apparently got issues with JD Vance’s best-selling #book “Hillbilly Elegy”
@seanalan I read Hillbilly Elegy several years ago. I am interested in your thoughts on the response. On my TBR list! Thanks for posting about it! @bookstodon#books
