Welcome to Mousings, where a passionate history teacher from Eastern Kentucky shares reflections on life, heritage, and the intricate tapestry of the Appalachian region. Join me on a journey of self-discovery, as we explore the love/hate relationship with my roots, confront universal social issues, and embrace the complexities of Eastern Kentucky’s past. This blog is a space for thoughtful contemplation, breaking down boundaries, and fostering understanding beyond geographical and figurative lines. Let’s unravel the layers of history, challenge perspectives, and find common threads that connect us all.
Mousings is derived from a friendly ghost, Mou, who is actually supposed to represent me. I came up with Mou during a difficult phase in my life, one with which I found Mou to be an escape. You can follow him on Facebook, as well as Instagram.
