MHA President Heather Andolina speaks with Jes Arnold, creator of the new Melungeon Roots website (melungeonroots.com), a Melungeon resource center and online community. Jes is an amateur genealogist and researcher, and a Melungeon descendant with deep roots in Eastern Kentucky. Through her project, Jes aims to support those seeking to learn more about their mixed ancestry heritage, foster a greater understanding of Melungeon history and identity, and uncover and retell the stories of lost ancestors.

In this episode, we also share our new 'We Are Melungeon' song! If you enjoy the song, you can download it here for free from our website and play it anytime!

Hosted by Heather Andolina, President of the Melungeon Heritage Association, Co-hosted by Brooke Gibbons, Presented by The Melungeon Heritage Association (melungeon.org)

Note: This episode was originally recorded as a live YouTube video. There were some technical issues with the audio, so this podcast begins when the audio starts (intro is missing).

Season 6 will focus on the 250th Anniversary of the American Revolution and the contributions and significance of the Melungeon people and people of mixed ancestry to the American Revolution. The episodes will be dropped monthly instead of weekly, with more content in between episodes to learn more about each episode, and we will let you know the date and time of each new episode.
