Covert Determiners In Appalachian English Narrative Declarative Sentences, William Oliver
Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects

Feeding into a working understanding of family-and-kin-as-institution, the paper ultimately locates Topher Lineberry's work between relations to place, historical archives, and speculative proposals.

I also discuss ideas that I learned during the process of this project, and offer reflections on the philosophy of engagement …

Roots On The Record, Joaquin P. Cotler
Capstones
Roots on the Record is a podcast featuring musicians and organizers who use their music to promote social consciousness, cultural awareness, and self-empowerment. The first four episodes focus on a black banjo player named Hubby Jenkins, a Brazilian rapper named Eli Efi, a Honduran DJ named De La Ceiba and a Brazilian-American singer/percussionist named Jen Nascimento. They each have a different relationship with music and teaching in their communities.
