Hello My name is christopher owens and I plan on Interviewing Francy thompson, she is my best friend mother. She is a native of appalachian. She has spent majority of her childhood in asheville North carolina. She is in the heart of appalachia. She also graduated from appalachian state university. She has spent twenty plus years in this region and knows all about the lore and the stigma of mountain folk. I will be asking her a series of questions like. Do you identify yourself as appalachian and what part where you from and things of that nature. I believe im interested in interviewing her because she moved from her respected region and how is the cultural change different or adjusted.
