Welcome
Honoring our Past
We ground this project in history offering context and reverent space to explore the lives of the Black bodies who gave their skill and brilliance to American culinary tradition.
Celebrating our Work
We tell the stories of our peers and colleagues so that history doesn’t do it for us, so a huge mission of this project is to be the record of this generation in food.
Building our Future
One of the main reasons this project exists is to provide an intellectual starting point for Black professionals to build their careers. We offer the resources of this project as a blueprint for intentional and contextual work.
Black Food is..…
A safe space for Black folks to see themselves and each other.
A repository for Black culture that connects us across the African diaspora.
A record of Black history that tell the most honest story of the human experience.
An inherently political act that is the litmus test of progress.
