Many people cite the Arkansas Black as the best eating apple, and I agree with them when I get a good one. Sometimes, probably because of storage, they can be mealy.
Whoa. Good myth.

I've never heard of Arkansas Black. It sounds like a kind of pot. t edit Marijuana, to be clear. Not a cooking pot.

You all are awesome. I'm using that piece, along with an interview with Wiley + Claude McKay's "If We Must Die" plus a Gwendolyn Brooks poem "The Boy Died in My Alley."
Now I'm looking for an article where a principal talks about the number of funerals she has attended. found it! [link]
Also, if you have other google-fu... Dee and Ricky is based on another pre 20th century portrait (much of Wiley's work is) and if you could figure out what, I'd be in awe. I can't. lots of his portraiture is titled "After ....." which explains where it is from.

I've never heard of Arkansas Black...
Don't feel bad. I haven't either and I've lived in Arkansas most of my life.

I'm kind of apple obsessed. I had read about Black Arkansas and kept looking for them. They are hard to find, although I'm seeing them a little more, and some growers in North Georgia have planted them. They showed up in some local farmers' markets this year.
