Bitter Struggles in a Sweet Life

June 26, 2009

Welcome to 88.5 WFDD’s presentation of StoryCorps—the personal experiences and reflections of residents from across the Piedmont.

These stories were originally recorded in the StoryCorps mobile unit this Spring in downtown Winston-Salem.

Joiner and Tyson are co-owners of Sweet Potatoes, a restaurant in downtown Winston-Salem.
