For over a year, Roger May has been curating an online photo project called Looking at Appalachia, which strives to open up more diversity in the ways Appalachians are viewed, and how Appalachians see themselves. Roger May decided to launch the Looking at Appalachia project last February, in time for the fiftieth anniversary of the War on Poverty. Since then, his project has collected hundreds of photographs from across Appalachia. Looking at Appalachia takes submissions from photographers, professional and amateurs alike.
