Country Boys--a Story of Poverty in Appalachia

Mil Duncan, RSS member, former RUPRI Board member and professor of sociology at the University of New Hampshire, spoke with Frontline recently about poverty in Appalachia. The interview was part of a PBS Frontline special, Country Boys, featuring a documentary examining the life of two boys growing up in rural America. To read the text of the interview with Mil Duncan, go to http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/countryboys/readings/duncan.html.

If you have news about yourself or other rural sociologists, please let me know so these can be featured on the RSS Web Site.
