    The Price of Admission

    They were in Charleston before the colony had a charter. They wore Confederate gray. They marched with mobs that overturned Black governments after the war. They were also lynched in Marietta and bombed in Atlanta and Jackson. In this special episode of Salvation South Deluxe, Chuck Reece sits between two of the South's foremost Jewish historians — Shari Rabin, chair of Jewish Studies at Oberlin and author of The Jewish South: An American History, and Marcie Cohen Ferris of UNC Chapel Hill — as they trace three hundred years of a community that paid for its place in the white South, and learned, again and again, that the price was never finished being collected. A story about race, religion, and money — and why you cannot tell the truth about the South without understanding all three.

    Who Makes the South’s Best Biscuit?

    During this pledge week, GPB has been asking our listeners, “Who has the best biscuits in Georgia?” Hundreds of you have put your answers on social media, but we haven’t seen anything close to a general agreement on the answer. That fact does not surprise Salvation South editor Chuck Reece.
