In this episode show producer Kerry-Ann and I discuss our love for the Amazon Prime show Harlem. The show stars Meagan Good, Jerrie Johnson, Shoniqua Shondai and Grace Byers. It follows the dynamic women and their friendship as they navigate their careers and personal relationships set in Harlem, New York. The show is culturally rich, relevant and relatable. But it also has some amazing cultural nods to Caribbean culture. Grace Byers’ character Quinn is of Jamaican heritage and the show highlights where her heritage naturally shows up as it relates to situations in her life. We discuss these situations and why the writers did a great job intertwining her culture where it was most relevant.
