Southern Foodways Alliance
The Southern Documentary Project is an institute of the Center for the Study of Southern Culture at the University of Mississippi and shares the Center's core mission to document, interpret, and teach about the U.S. South through critical research and public engagement. In addition to telling our own complicated stories about the South, the Southern Documentary Project staff is equally focused on training the next generation of storytellers. SouthDocs teaches and mentors undergraduate and graduate students in the Southern Studies academic programs. Students come to the program with a range of backgrounds and experiences in visual storytelling. Some have never used a camera before and others are experienced filmmakers interested in applying their craft to telling the stories of the South. Southern Studies graduate students can pursue a documentary track MA degree as well as an MFA in Documentary Expression. Each semester we show off our student work in a documentary showcase that shows the full scope of our programs.
