A Southern Saga

On the clickthrough, it’s a story straight from the heart of the Deep South I come from… And it’s on this week’s This American Life. (A widget should appear below. If not, just click through to their site.) It’s a rerun (with an update at the end) of an epic that spans the breadth of the whole region, but whose center revolves around the discovery of a missing child in my hometown, Columbia, Mississippi. Enjoy.
