Melody Hunter-Pillion, a 2012 MALS graduate and a PhD canditate in NC State's Public History program, uses the oral histories of NC’s African American farmers and fishermen to tell the story of how these families have shaped North Carolina and how they are dealing with heritage depletion, land loss and climate change.
