Today, entertainment options abound, and the writers at the heart of this documentary work within many artistic and intellectual traditions. The diverse group includes Jericho Brown, Jason Isbell, Lyle Lovett, Amanda Shires, Mary Steenburgen, Angie Thomas and Natasha Trethewey, among others. And often they are writing from a perspective that was almost entirely absent — or violently silenced — in the South of Ms. Welty and Ms. Lee. “There’s this erasure of people, this erasure of the past, this erasure of these lived histories. These are the narratives that get woven out of the glorification of the South as a moonlight-and-magnolias place.”Other storytellers in this documentary may seem, on the surface, to have almost nothing to do with the Southern past.
