I just came across this on Netflix last night. Only watched a bit of it so far but it has my attention. Thought others might enjoy if they hadn't heard of it. Enjoy!
High on the Hog: How African American Cuisine Transformed America | Official Trailer | Netflix
It's a good series. Well made and I learned a lot. I recently met one of the people who appear in one of the episodes - Adrian Miller, aka Soul Food Scholar and the author of Black Smoke, about African American's contributions to American barbecue.
I watched it awhile back. I enjoyed it. Some of it is pretty powerful, like when he stands in the slave trade market in Africa, and when he talks to people on the SC barrier islands where that have lived there for years but they are being removed due to "progress" - in other words, lets take the land and build highways and high rises, i.e., "imminent domain". I enjoyed it and it also disturbed me.
