Nicole King, American studies, on WYPR’s The Signal

Published: Aug 6, 2013

On Friday, Aug. 2, WYPR’s The Signal re-aired last year’s interview with assistant professor of American studies, Nicole King, where she discussed the colorful history of the roadside attraction, South of the Border.

“I think South of the Border—and recreation in general, especially in the South—is important because it’s the politicized aspect of what we do in our free time,” said King. “We often think of politics as happening in board rooms or in political spheres, but they actually happen in places that we go everyday, and especially in the South.”
