Sweet potato comfort pie a Black History Month treat to district students

Every February, across the country, we celebrate Black History Month. This year, Robbinsdale Area Schools is honoring the month-long celebration by bringing to our community a series of videos showcasing students performing in culturally relevant ways.

Rose McGee, a resident of Robbinsdale Area Schools and founder of Sweet Potato Comfort Pie, provided her renown dessert to students in the district on Feb. 25.

McGee talks about working with the district was so important and why having the chance to provide students with the "sacred dessert" of Black people was so meaningful to her.

Thank you for watching, and enjoy.
