Sarah Ross, Roosevelt Brownlee, and Betsy Cain
10:00 am – 12:00 pm | Tuesday, February 18 

Social Roots (2024) connects nature and culture via foodways and art of the Georgia and Carolina coasts. Cultural expressions of Native Americans and enslaved Africans lie uneasily alongside European colonial traditions to create a tragic yet rich tapestry. Sarah Ross and Roosevelt Brownlee introduce southeastern foodways while Betsy Cain mirrors the experience with her unforgettable art.
