Acclaimed cookbook author Jessica B. Harris weaves an utterly engaging history of African American cuisine, taking the listener on a harrowing journey from Africa across the Atlantic to America, and tracking the trials that the people and the food have undergone along the way. From chitlins and ham hocks to fried chicken and vegan soul, Harris celebrates the delicious and restorative foods of the African American experience and details how each came to form an important part of African American culture, history, and identity.

This book is absolutely fantastic, and what an experience hearing it from Jessica B. Harris herself! She takes you on a journey through the history of black people in the US and, before that, Africa through food.
There are times I felt rage and grief. Yet others where I laughed and felt pride. She has laid the truth bare while ensuring the versatility, resilience, resourcefulness, and so much more of our people. An incredible book that I plan to return to.
