Our love letter to Mississippi

Stories
We're storytellers.
Shared Experiences explores the spaces that connect us --
through writing, images, film and song.
The Mississippi Delta gets a bad rap.
As Clarksdale's former mayor and Ground Zero co-founder Bill Luckett says,
"You're in the poorest part of the poorest state in the country -- but we are very rich in many ways."
We combine Silicon Valley-sleek storytelling with
listening to the people -- past and present -- who make this place so special.
We're working to change how the world sees the Delta.
Here's a sample of some stories we've told:
