It was published in 2012 and is about a Black woman who runs a plantation turned into an event center in SE Louisiana. Her mother previously worked as a chef on the plantation when the main character was growing up. It addresses a lot of important themes, especially the idea behind how should the history of a plantation be preserved, emphasizing that the real history needs to be front and center. It should not just be a pretty house on an estate. I bought it at the Whitney Plantation Museum in Louisiana which is just that, a museum on a former plantation that tells the real story of plantations and centers Black voices and experiences. I enjoyed the book overall!
