Can those accents still be heard in the younger generations or are those accents slowly disappearing?

They still exist.

Due to "class shaming" (in which tacky American women seem to love doing to other, poorer American woman) some Southern women try to lose the drawl.

I enjoy hearing the accent!

If the entire country sounded the same that would be very boring.

Unfortunately I think the entire country is headed in that direction.
