From the Piedmont to the Lowcountry, South Carolina is the site of countless engaging stories. The contributors to Carolina Currents share those stories, broadening our understanding of the state's unique and diverse histories and cultures. A venue for public-facing interdisciplinary scholarship, each volume presents a collection of essays that illuminates the complex interactions between the state's past and present.

Essays in volume 2 cover topics including the Universities Studying Slavery project, the civil rights movement in South Carolina, and Asian immigrants in the Upstate; a review essay discusses recent work by South Carolina poets.




Christopher D. Johnson is professor of English and Trustees' Research Scholar at Francis Marion University. He has published more than one hundred books, essays, and reviews.

"Carolina Currents is a welcome addition to the cultural conversations of South Carolina—inclusive, diverse, incisive, overarching."—John Lane, author of The Best of the Kudzu Telegraph
