Thirty years later, Bill returns on a new journey that uncovers a Southern city that is leading the way in progressive politics and the beginnings of true racial equity. Once again featuring members of R.E.M., the B-52's and Pylon, only now bolstered by a new generation of artists and activists including Mariah Parker aka Linqua Franqa, Kishi Bashi, Patterson Hood and the Drive-By Truckers. Follow along the journey through the social changes that have come to the forefront of our American dialogue.
