How Things Came To Be with historical storyteller Logie Meecham

James Navé here welcoming historical storyteller Logie Meecham to the Twice 5 Miles Radio microphone. Logie and I met in the early 90s when he and I were members of Poetry Alive!, a theater company devoted to performing traditional poems for students. Sadly, Logie left this world in 2018. But Logie made his mark long before he said goodbye. During this conversation, Logie reflects on his deep involvement with his beloved North Carolina and what it meant to grow up in the South in the 50s and 60s. Logie was an educator, a storyteller, an activist, a singer, and one of the best performance artists I’ve ever known. Whether Logie was in a bar or a church, when he stood, everyone listened. Logie understood life would often say, “The smallest gesture of kindness to a stranger can make all the difference in the world.” Enjoy the show.
