“If you don’t tell your own story, then someone else will,” says Frank X Walker in a video released by Creative Lexington earlier this year.

Walker also explains the origins of the “X” in “Frank X Walker”:

But it’s not an abbreviation for ‘Xylophone’ or ‘Xavier’. It’s just ‘X’, as in the unknown, like in mathematics.

He then goes into a brief genesis of the term “Affrilachia”, which deals with his dictionary defining “appalachian” as a “white person from Appalachia”.

Creative Lexington’s mission is to share stores about Lexington, Kentucky. Their “Snapshot Bios” are 3-5 minute videos designed to “celebrate the vibrant creative scene and sense of community in Lexington” (source). The video was produced by Bryan Mullins and Filmed/Edited by John Buckman with music by Matt Mason.
