Rocky Top Remembers

Stories from the Stage: Season 2 Episode 25 | 26m 59s | CC

Rocky top is rocky and tough to plant. Yet fertile ground for storytelling. Morris is the first Black baseball player at TN Tech and learns the cost of being a trailblazer; Harrison follows in his father’s footsteps, beating carnival games; and Sandy finds out about the pecking order at her grandma’s. Three storytellers, three interpretations of ROCKY TOP REMEMBERS, hosted by Demetria Kalodimos.
