I love ALL stories about resilience and motivation. Amen to that, and I am not "religious ".
I am watching episode one now, so I will have to get back to you about how one can say who was instrumental and who was not, but I am always alert to gardening references, so I want to make sure I understand what you are saying about growing “yams”, and their relatives.
I think you are saying they “All are grown in places with a lot of heat so North and West Africa as well as Central America, SEA, and India.”, but they do grow in the Americas, and the documentary should have acknowledged they grow in Central America.
“There are so many real contributions, for this sloppy documentary to stand is sad.”
I want to say “beggers can’t be choosers”, but I should check out the origin of that expression. To me, no history, or only European history, is sadder.
