  • Built in what was once a segregated bus terminal in Savannah, Ga., The Grey is a destination restaurant that defies preconceived notions about Southern cooking. It also offers its partners, restaurateur and entrepreneur Johno Morisano and James Beard Award-winning chef Mashama Bailey, a setting for conversations about race, which grew into a book: "Black, White, and The Grey: The Story of an Unexpected Friendship and a Beloved Restaurant." They sat down with correspondent Martha Teichner to discuss their quietly provocative endeavors.

    To think that this historically segregated Greyhound bus station is now an integrated upscale restaurant with an award-winning black chef at the helm just blows my mind because I was that little black boy who was forced to give up my seat to a white woman when traveling alone on a Greyhound bus in 1956.

    What a great piece, Sunday Morning! It's not just about the messages each of these professionals have to say, but the messages we probably all have, but haven't had the courage yet to speak about. I can't wait to go down to Savannah and eat at The Grey!

    Although in the beginning they didn't talk about race it is inspirational that they talked about race later on and published a book to share with everyone. They are bringing people of all backgrounds together through history and the present. I can't wait to visit. 💜💚🌍

    When you can start a dialogue with different people, of different races . Then you can create a better understanding of people . A meaningful conversation on both sides that can maybe create a beautiful bond . A bond that can last a lifetime.

    To be honest, I probably would have had that mural with integration on the bus, instead of whites in the back. We, as Americans, need to come together. No matter one's race, sexual orientation, gender identity, and the list goes on. We are enlightened citizens now more than ever. Housing for all of our citizens, and the basics would go a long way, plus our government treating us better than they currently do. 😉🇺🇲❤️

      Well I did see which look like young people that was white and black in the front of the bus I think they are trying to integrate people but starting with a younger group first.i think that was on purpose.and out front in the picture you can see 3 people.but look at what we have seen in picture, paintings etc.thats still up now in this country.

    • @kathyZ500
      @kathyZ500 2 роки тому +4

      There are white people also up front. The bus is blended well and depicts intentional seating to show the opposite of how it was and mixing us together (if you look) to how it could be.

    Inspiring story, I suppose. Sounds like both Johno and Mashama had some anger and trust issues they needed to work through. And good for them! Together they run a top-flite restaurant in a building with a difficult history. But what am I to conclude? White people need to ride in the back of the bus? Seriously? How does that help society advance? Why can’t we simply delight in the fact these two people met under unusual circumstances and now bring joy to others’ lives through culinary greatness?

    Looking at this young lady I would guess that she is younger than myself...58....I find repulsive the implication that Savannah was segregated during her 6 years there as a child....I know better I was born and raised there....Dr. King once said of Savannah that it was the most racially harmonious city in the south...I agree with a previous post the the bus mural should have been integrated....that would show the true nature of my hometown......leave it to others (CBS) and someone from up north to imply different

    • @ludovicoc7046
      @ludovicoc7046 2 роки тому +2

      Typical CBS to gin up controversy where none exists. She was born in 1974 so she was six in 1980; this story doesn't say which six years she was in Savannah--was it in the '70's or '80's?

      Darla Sutton • Savannah was/is segregated 75%‼️I'm from Atlanta, mostly segregated except for the upper-middle class. I live in Woodlawn/Bronx, 10470. It borders the famous Woodlawn Cemetery. My post office, is in the 99% Irish/Irish section; separated by a bridge, over the Metro North tracks, the Bronx River Parkway, & the Bronx River. The street, that links them, was ONCE E. 238th, on both sides (when the entire neighborhood was White). NOW, since "integration", E. 238th, is Nereid Ave. & McLean Ave., in the White ; FURTHERMORE, on either side of that centerline, on McLean Ave, are Kelly green stripes, to let "YOU" know, where you are. I HATE to have to pick up packages ; because, my "neighbors" give side glances at a white haired, elderly Black middle-class Vietnam Veteran. To fact-check me, is as easy as Google Maps‼️ I live at the corner of E. 239th.🤣😂🤣 "Their" E. 239th, is 3 blocks south❗America is in denial. I lived in Europe. Walked ANYWHERE. Never asked for ID or whether "I'm lost". The German police have to be psychologically analyzed for fitness ; and, have degrees ; but, THIS is MY country, with all its warts & hypocrisies. The impartial LORD, who judges NOT the exterior, WILL sort it ALL out. 🙏🙏🙏👍🇺🇸
