These Roots, is a series that explores the day to day lives of Black people across America in the 18th and 19th centuries. This episode follows Judith, a free Black Woman who worked as a Pepper Pot vendor in Philadelphia at the beginning of the 19th century.
**Please Note that hugging or touching people in public in the West was not common practice until well into the 20th century. It was included here as a creative choice to illustrate familiarity and care within the Black community.**
