Plot summary
It is 1977, and the miniseries Roots is airing. In the small southern town of Whynot, two hairdressers, Violet and Pearl, one white and one African American, open a salon they call Salt and Pepper. They want the shop to serve customers of both races and to bring the town's longstanding prejudices into the open, in a place where the tracks still divide a right side from a wrong one. The pair also take the venture as a step toward independence for themselves.
