History 2: Slavery, Suffering and Affordable Luxury

Why do we get upset when we’re charged $36 for an ordinary cappuccino? The answer flies us to the Caribbean where white Europeans make black Africans suffer. In this second episode of A History of Coffee, we uncover how colonialism squeezes the price of coffee, and how that changes European culture forever.
