New episode: Mysterious Collards in Morocco
Collard greens are strongly associated with Black foodways in the US South, though they are also eaten in parts of Europe and in East Africa.
And, as it happens, in Morocco on the edge of the Sahara, although the outside world has only just found out about that.
Where did those collards come from? Who brought them? When? And what do they tell us about collards in the US?

Collard greens are strongly associated with Black foodways in the US South. They are also valued in Morocco on the edge of the Sahara, although the outside world has only just found out about that.
That raises so many questions.

The day holds onto the light for as long as it can. The warm glow of the horizon reminds me of all of the bright adventures of the day, and makes me wonder “what will I do tomorrow?”. I can see the first star, which means that night will soon be here; the time for rest, processing, and preparing to imagine tomorrow.
(Written a few days ago, and published on a rainy evening where the memories of the sunset on a clear evening warm my heart.)

The octopuses are gorgeous.
