I think you are short-cutting the whole process of redemption...I don't want to be the person that stops that process from taking place."

When I think about what my family ate, we ate what people think of as soul food on special occasions, on holidays, but our typical diet was leafy greens and nutrients and tubers - food that was as fresh as being harvested right before our meal.
