The History of Rice Cultivation on the Southeastern Coast - Ep 165

On this episode of A Life in Ruins, Carlton takes a well-earned break while Connor and David chat. They start out chatting about David’s new tattoo and some Lord of the Rings lore. They do talk some anthropology concerning the effects of tattoos on the body and the experience itself, and also how Boromir applies to anthropology.

The last two-thirds of the show, David discusses the history of rice cultivation, with a focus on the Southeastern Coast of the United States and the West Coast of Africa. This is a very heavy topic and they do their best to talk about the anthropology of rice, the African diaspora and the modern day implications and expressions of this history. Please be warned that while atrocities are not specifically delved into, it might be triggering to some people.
