The Real Hillbilly Elegy (Ad)

The mountains of Appalachia are incredible to behold. Spanning thousands of miles across Alabama, Kentucky, Tennessee and beyond… It's one of our country’s most scenic areas. But hidden beneath the beauty is an ugly reality: our most beautiful land is also the poorest. It’s a tragedy because for over 200 years, generation after generation has worked “coal country” with nothing but a pick and shovel, hauling billions of dollars from the ground.
