SUMMARY:Crossroads @ Senatobia: Exploring Rural Mississippi Through Population Studies
DESCRIPTION:On September 25\, the Learning Resource Center at Northwest Mississippi Community College in Senatobia will host Dr. John Green\, state scholar for the Crossroads exhibit\, to present his free program\, “From Snapshots to a Collage: Exploring Rural Mississippi through Population Studies.” The virtual program will take place in conjunction with the Smithsonian traveling exhibit Crossroads: Change in Rural America\, on display in Senatobia through October 22. The event will be conducted on Zoom. \nZoom meeting info:\nhttps://zoom.us/j/98626395139\nMeeting ID: 986 2639 5139 \nMany popular images of rural people and places present them as homogeneous in terms of demographic\, social\, and economic characteristics and trends. This may lead to oversimplification of rural areas and limited efforts to meet the needs and priorities of people living in these places. Achieving a better understanding of rural communities requires defining our concepts and identifying indicators of rural life in terms of continuity and change. Following an exploration of the terms “rural” and “non-metropolitan\,” Dr. Green will share a series of graphical images and narratives about Mississippi’s rural people and places using population-level information\, emphasizing what these “snapshots” of rural life tell us about Mississippi and how we might use them to form a “collage” that captures both the similarity and diversity. \nCrossroads: Change in Rural America offers small towns a chance to look at their own paths to highlight the changes that affected their fortunes over the past century. The exhibition will prompt discussions about what happened when America’s rural population became a minority of the country’s population and the ripple effects that occurred. \nThe exhibit is open to the public Mondays-Thursdays from 8am to 9pm\, Fridays from 8am-3:30pm\, and Sundays 2-7pm. \nFuture Crossroads events in Senatobia:\nSeptember 29\, 6pm: “Mississippi Foodways” Speakers Bureau program\nOctober 6\, 2pm: Virtual book discussion\, Crooked Letter\, Crooked Letter\nOctober 16\, 11am: “Cultural Appropriation at the Crossroads” lecture\nOctober 20\, 7pm: Bluegrass concert featuring local musician Andy Ratliff

SUMMARY:Crossroads @ Senatobia: Mississippi Foodways
DESCRIPTION:On September 29\, the Learning Resource Center at Northwest Mississippi Community College in Senatobia will host MHC Speakers Bureau member Malcolm White to present his free program “Mississippi Foodways.” The program will take place in conjunction with the Smithsonian traveling exhibit Crossroads: Change in Rural America\, on display in Senatobia through October 22. \nThis presentation offers observations by a longtime connoisseur of Southern food and culture on topics ranging from the history of Comeback Dressing to how the tamale came to Mississippi to the evolution of dining out in Mississippi. \nCrossroads: Change in Rural America offers small towns a chance to look at their own paths to highlight the changes that affected their fortunes over the past century. The exhibition will prompt discussions about what happened when America’s rural population became a minority of the country’s population and the ripple effects that occurred. \nThe exhibit is open to the public Mondays-Thursdays from 8am to 9pm\, Fridays from 8am-3:30pm\, and Sundays 2-7pm. \nFuture Crossroads events in Senatobia:\nOctober 6\, 2pm: Virtual book discussion\, Crooked Letter\, Crooked Letter\nOctober 16\, 11am: “Cultural Appropriation at the Crossroads” lecture\nOctober 20\, 7pm: Bluegrass concert featuring local musician Andy Ratliff
