About this listen

In this episode of Reflecting Mississippi, B. Brian Foster joins Mississippi Humanities Council Executive Director Stuart Rockoff to discuss We Make, his documentary created with Ethan Payne about Siggers High School—an all-Black school that served the Shannon, Mississippi community from roughly 1940 to 1970, originally known as Shannon Colored School. Foster reflects on the power of preserving local history, the legacy of segregated education, and how storytelling helps communities reclaim and honor their past. Together, the conversation explores memory, identity, and the importance of documenting the lived experiences that continue to shape Mississippi today.
