Who Gets to Cook Black Food?
Who gets to cook Black food? That's a complicated question. Caroline travels to her hometown of Nashville Tennessee to learn the rich history of her hometown's culinary calling card... Hot Chicken.

But why are the originators of this dish struggling to grow their business while new White owned Hot Chicken empires dominate the market?
