the ozarks with Dr. Jared M. Phillips, part 2 (ep 2, 29).
Manage episode 490500064 series 3551422
In part two of our conversation with Dr. Jared Phillips, we trace the transformation of the Ozarks from an agrarian culture built on land, memory, and mutuality into a region shaped by corporate industry and consolidated power. We explore how poultry integration, economic policy, and the rise of companies like Tyson and Walmart reshaped Northwest Arkansas, altering not just the economy, but the identity of the place itself. This episode bridges the legacy of civil rights and labor with the next wave of regional change: the rise of Latino immigration, the demand for cheap labor, and the political decisions that continue to define who belongs.
