In this episode, we discuss some of the amazing work to preserve African American folklore in the South done by the incredible Zora Neale Hurston. We compare two tales that are almost identical when Zora Neale Hurston collected them but differ slightly between the genders. Through these stories we also get to discuss how much richer books from Zora Neale Hurston (such as "Mules and Men") are because she included the context about the setting and conversations that take place around the telling of tales.2023-02-251h 09
