Look for anything by John Shelton Reed, a UNC sociologist, on the whole
southern ethnicity question.  If you have a good public library, they
should have his work.  And for fun read his "My Tears Spoiled My Aim."

At least 20 years ago I read a very short piece in the Richmond TD
about a group of ethnologists who had gone around the country,
looking at various regional cultures, and they determined that the
only place in the US with a true, indigenous ethnic culture was the
south. Looked at that way, it explains an awful lot about the region
and its history. I wish I'd saved the article, I can't find any
mention of this study now. Have any of you heard of it?
