A little something personal and nostalgic to wrap up the week. From my perspective as a long-time progressive Minnesotan, I’m in the midst of writing a memoir about my childhood as a member of a displaced Appalachian family in conservative northwestern Ohio.
I recalled that my late mother’s favorite song was Can the Circle be Unbroken by “Mother” Maybelle Carter of the well-known Carter family singers. Imagine my delight when I discovered the original 1927 recording on YouTube. Needless to say my heart melted, and I felt reconnected to my mother as I listened to that old song. Enjoy:
