Black food : stories, art & recipes from across the African disapora

Terry, Bryant, 1974- (editor.). Koren, Oriana, (photographer (expression)).

Summary: Terry captures the broad and divergent voices of the African Diaspora through the prism of food. More than a cookbook, this book is a communal shrine to the shared cultural history of the African diaspora, offered up in gratitude to the great chain of Black lives, and to all the sustaining ingredients and nourishing traditions they carried and remembered. The recipes embody the contributors' approach to cooking, and draws on history and memory while looking forward. Terry includes visual art, thought-provoking essays, and imaginative poetry that encourage exploration, renewal, and growth. -- adapted from Introduction.
