African-Americans have made a huge contribution to what has become Southern cooking. These books explore the influence of African and Caribbean influences on our food. They all feature wonderful recipes, some of them passed down for several generations.

Hello -
I am a filmmaker in Atlanta. I read your latest blog with the mention of Edna Lewis.
I just wanted to let you know I produced a 21 minute documentary about Miss Edna Lewis and its viewable in its entirety on Internet at a Gourmet Magazine website:
http://www.gourmet.com/magazine/video/2008/01/Edna
and at a Georgia Public Broadcasting website:

My documentary is called Fried Chicken and Sweet Potato Pie.
My website, http://bbarash.com/bb_friedchicken.htm has more information about the film and the story of Miss Lewis.
Sincerely,
Bailey Barash
