Black Rice: The African Origins of Rice Cultivation in the Americas
Judith A. Carney
Rice was a major plantation crop during the first 300 years of settlement in the Americas. It accompanied slaves across the Middle Passage throughout the New World to Brazil, the Caribbean, and the southern U. S. Carney reveals how racism has shaped our historical memory and neglected this critical African contribution to the making of the Americas.
