My first time hearing her name and seeing her face(photo below).

Edda L. Fields-Black looks smart, congratulations to her for winning the Pulitzer Prize for history, I mean this sista brought up some vitally important questions, like how did knowledge of grains from West Africa shape rural lands and cities in North America? And why has it taken so long for historians to address the agricultural knowledge work of enslaved persons?

She told us all about rice farming in the United States, including the agricultural traditions of the Gullah and Geechee peoples, including her personal connection to this history. My hats off to her.

Thanks for sharing this piece of knowledge, Mr G!! Reading is good. Btw, you know that Kris doesn't want you to read
