Going to Graceland

After preparing the Booth in Holly Springs, we splurged for a tour of Graceland in nearby Memphis. StoryCorps facilitators John White and Michelle Swinehart stand alongside their fearless leader, Griot’s Senior Coordinator Jennifer Carr. Snapped before the launch of the tour stop, this picture exhibits our extreme excitement.

Walking through Graceland, we experienced many moments of inspiration along the way…

Big night in Little Rock

By September 24th, the GriotBooth team completed our road trip from Oakland, CA to Holly Springs, MS with a quick detour in Little Rock, AK. By chance, we happened on a beautiful southern sunset and celebration for the 50th anniversary of the Little Rock Nine.
